Pieces of Me

Sometimes   my words,    memories     and    thoughts   are far     away
         from each       other,  making  me     to     envy the     clouds
which    are   gaseous    and  misty,
       yet   we see    them      far  away,    calling  them    "clouds".

Sometimes   people      call  me       by my       baptized  name,
        but    I wonder    what  name       I can       truly     call myself;
a being          trying   to         hold   his           pieces together,
       as  fate tries   to      blow them            apart........
