Who Am I

Who am I? 
A question with a purpose and so very deep,
One could go on and never touch bottom.
The search for the answer can be compared 
to that of Homers The Odyssey.
Its an outlandish adventure filled with Highs and Lows.
A mission that tests all that is human,
By end ones pride will be broken and rebuilt.
Who am I? is a lead question heavy and cruel to ask.
  Who are you? Who am i?
 Why, why, why, why.... WHY!
I'm yet to know, how do i know,
Did you know? Tell me who am I?
Cause i cant even begin to describe!

Ramana’s question ‘who am I’ has perplexed many. We cannot use mind to go beyond mind, so why not choose stillness, going into the glowing heart? Congrats on your win, Dylan

Before everything, one has to know, figure out thyself! and seems easy, but very difficult! I completely understood the emotions of your poem. - Thanks - Marshall
