Minus Identity Who am i

I am but a shadow, A whisper in the wind,
 a fleeting thought, A ghostly presence.

I am lost in the chaos, Anonymous and alone,
 Drifting through life, Without a name to call my own.

I am undefined, A blank canvas,
A mystery to unravel, A puzzle without a solution.

I am the absence of self, A void of identity,
 A question mark, A riddle left unanswered.

Unencumbered by expectations, 
Just a being, undefined and free.

I sometimes wonder if cartoons had feelings, how would they feel about being a cartoon. But your poem is different. I'll let it be.

A well written poem.. I used to feel like this people say cruel or hurtful things at times about us. People may try to change us or try to change our way if thinking. I enjoyed your poem Everyewhere we go people now treat us like a number At the doctor or hospital we have a number National insurance we have a number Dss they get a number its sad We have hope in where we came from And to where we will return one day. When we are lost we will be found. Amen
