I Wish I Knew Who I Am

©  Vincent Profaci
You tell me you love me I tell you the same
I don't know who I am its a shame its insane

I want to love me and you like I love my own son
Inside I feel dead and I'm totally numb

I prick my finger from a rose with a thorn
A reminder that are children are of the purest of form

A mirror reflection of body we are
The more I look the more that I scar
The more that I scar the better I feel
In this crazy world that seems oh so unreal

The whole world is my stage it helps cover my fear
For we are all merely actors according to Shakespeare

When I speak of the truth it feels like a noose
That's slowly stretching my neck
And then when I lie the noose opens wide
And postpones the decent to my death

I feel so amused or maybe confused
Of the thoughts that run through my head
Its just so unfair with these thoughts I compare
My whole life I just can't stay ahead

Is it me is it you
Is it life is it truth
Is it destiny or time
Is it yours is it mine

I don't know but I hope it comes soon
Because it HURTS
I Wish I Knew Who I Am by Vincent Profaci @FamilyFriendPoems
