Heather Allan Poet I do not know?

What Is Identity?

IDENTITY IS WHO YOU ARE AND WHAT YOU DO,
IT IS A STRANGE THING ,
BUT AS EVERYTHING ELSE IS STRANGE,
IT IS NOT.

IDENTITY IS THE QUESTION OF LIFE,
FOR CENTUTIES NO ONE HAS KNOW WHAT IT IS,
AND STILL TODAY NO ONE KNOWS,
EVEN YOU SOMETIMES DON’T KNOW YOURSELF.

YOU ARE THE QUESTION OF LIFE,
AND SO IS IDENTITY,
ONLY YOU REALLY KNOW YOURSELF,
AND WHO AND WHAT YOU ARE.

THAT IS THE THING ABOUT YOU,
ONLY HOW AND WHAT YOU DO IS YOU,
ONLY YOU ARE YOU,
YOU ARE  UNIQUE.

BEING UNIQUE MAY SOUND SPECIAL,
AND IT IS IN A WAY,
BUT IF WE DIDN’T HAVE EVERYBODY ,
AS UNIQUE AS THEY ALL ARE,
THE WORLD WOULDN’T BE WHAT IT IS TODAY.

A SPECIAL AND  DIFFERENT WORLD OF ANY OTHER, 
 THE ONLY WAY YOU LIVE,
BUT IT IS STILL THE ROOT  OF LIFE,
LIFE IS YOU

AND IN A WAY LIFE IS IDENTITY,
BUT IT COULD BE TOLD OTHERWISE,
OTHERWISE IN A DIFFERENT MEANING,
A POINTLESS MEANING OF NOTHING.

NO ONE STILL KNOWS WHAT IDENTTY IS,
I SUPPOSE,
I SUPPOSE IDENTITY IS HOW, WHAT AND WHO YOU ARE,
ALL OF YOUR DIFFERENCES,
 AND UNIQUE PERSONALITITY,
 I SUPPOSE IDENTITY IS ,

YOU
