“Inhabitant of this earth, tell me who you are,
what makes you any different from a star among stars?”
Truly, l reply,
“My black hair, tan skin, and brown eyes,
may not seem as though one of a kind,
but let me say, there is one thing l hold,
something more valuable then gold.”
“Who am l?”
“I am the solely reflection of my creator,
both mother and father.
I am the individual,
I hold no label.”
Retorts the human being,
“Inhabitant of this earth, tell me who you are,
what makes you any different from a star among stars?”
Again l say,
“Flesh is mere flesh, but what is that to me?
For I am the beholder of my own identity.
My black hair, tan skin, and brown eyes,
may not seem as though one of a kind,
to the world that is,
because in my eyes,
I am one of a kind.”
Replies,
“Inhabitant of this earth, tell me who you are...”
I smile,
“I am that star among stars.”
