How To Find Yourself In Fractions
I always think
of myself and my life
as being divided into
fractions of a whole
Sometimes people told me
I resemble my mother
while some others
say I resemble my father
while the remainder believe
I am a mixed fraction of them both
I really cannot comprehend which is which
One day I had spotted
an image of my mother
on a photograph taken from her youth
I scanned it carefully and took note
she shared many similarities to myself
in tastes of
wardrobe
facial expressions
hairstyle
and even frames of glasses
I may have resembled a fraction
of my father
as a young child
while I may resemble a fraction
of my mother
as I mature into adulthood
