Searching For Me

I wake up this morning Looking at myself in the mirror I found out that am different From what I think I am Thinking back on things I have done Comparing them with things I do Remembering things I wanted to do I found out that am far from me I want to be somebody I have never met I want to do things That has never been done But in my small mind Something is clear I have not done what I ought to do Seeing I am a shadow The shadow of my true self Seeing I am an illusion Illusion as real as me Knowing I have not reached my destination But one thing is certain I will find me some day
