Who Am I
June 15, 2021
Am I a friend;
Or am I an enemy
Is it you;
Or is it my identity
Do I have to choose
If so what am I willing to lose
Who am I?
Am i wrong when I am right;
Or do you judge me out of spite
Do I listen;
Or do I fight
Who am I?
Am I what others want to see
Or am I who I want to be
My reflection;
Colorful
My vision;
Dull
Oh how I yearn to see those colors;
As I hide them from others
Who am I?
I am strong;
But I am weak
Letting no one knock me off my feet
I am who I choose to be
I will one day be me

This piece is about someone trying to find who they are, their identity, facing the challenges of reality. This piece is moslty refering to those in the trans community who have found the need to hide because of the judgmental world we live in, but this sense of not knowing your identity can resignate with anyone and everyone.
