My Unknown Identity

i am, but a vapor in the wind A flower that quickly sprouts up but never blossoms Am like a star with no illumination and a moon with no light a candle without a flame and a fire that never burns A sun that sets in the deep horizon and never rises again to myself, i am, unknown I am, but a wave of the ocean a hope that fades and a heart that breaks am like a traveller in the wilderness a stream that slowly dries in the desert Am like warrior with no strength and a warlord with no army indeed, to myself, i am, unknown i am, but an instrument of time the opposite of positivity i've done all the work but i keep on working i have all that i need but i keep on searching am like a villain among heroes and a demon among angels am like joseph without a dream, daniel without a vision and samson without his strength when will i thirst no more when will i find what my soul longs for if you can, please answer me because to myself, i am, unknown.
