Am I Recognisable To Myself

I woke up today, wondering am I another person Am I recognisable to myself, or a different version What can I tell, that makes me not like the others Whilst all around believe, as my character slowly showers I have told many things that I believe to be real Or are they fabrications, and the mental toll now peals When I awaken tomorrow, who do I really see Or will another stranger be standing there as me 'Don't worry Soupers, this is not me' http://www.thehighlanderspoems.com/life-12.php

It sounds like a multiple personality disorder to me :) or a case of lost and found identities...Cool poem, dear James. Now I have to go and find myself :) Bye!

Hmmm, James, I'm wondering who inspired this write. As you say, it's not about you. People who are not true to themselves often find themselves unable to separate truth from fantasy. Excellent poem! One for my favorites. Love, Carolyn

An inquisitive little verse this James, or is it a reflection from a wonky mirror? 'If we could see ourselves as others see us' comes to mind. My belated thanks for your fleeting visit and comments James. hicky

Reads like one who is a pathological liar..Or one with split personality...Or maybe even borderline personality..Sara

I'm smiling at this introspective piece, James..I actually used to do this when I was much younger..stand before the mirror and ask, "who are you"!! But I've always been a dreamer anyway..so I'm told.. How are you Highlander? Hope you're well. Love, Audrey
