Who Am I Really....

Who Am I really……

Who am I really?
Who am I to you?
Years of being alone in the world,
What am I to do?


Who am I really?
Did you think I hold the clue?
Believe me if I did I wouldn’t be trying to get it from you,

Who am I really?
I’d like think I know,
But my identity is buried deep down below,
Underneath all those skeletons,
You know where family secrets lie,
Some of whom are still living,
And others already died.


Who am I really?
Life for me have been a mystery,
A twisted tale of memories,
Dangerously not a friend to me,
Taunting me inside,
So tell who I am really.

The mystery unravels, when one looks at your eyes. A friend, a mother, a daughter, what more can one ask. A glance of you I cherish, yet I don´t know why. Might be that I know you, or think that I do. Way down below where your skeletons are. A love, long lost ...will make it allright
