Looking For Me

I have looked at family photos and researched the
Family tree.

I'm not looking for family members I am just looking
For me.

I recognise my name in a mirror I see my face

But who I am I do not know I'm just trying to find
My place.

The name I have lived with is the only one I have
Known

But hidden deep in my past are the secrets that have
Grown.

So who am I really I'm asking but you will not say.

So I will keep looking for me until my life fades
Away.
