Am I
i walk amongst the pebbled tides,
where ripples roll along the reverie;
reflections of who i thought i could be,
never wearing eyes of lies nor taking sides-
for there are things that i still cannot see
though i hold tenderness inside me
believing in a mirror too fogged to peek,
searching for answers from a mind, weak,
when i know that it’s only peace that i seek
so then,
am i but a woman
seeing myself as you do?
i fear, one day,
i shall see someone i once knew
