Inner-self

You ask a simple deep question,
"Who am i really?"
You answer with the obvious,
"I am me."
That's when you stop and think,
"Well who IS this me?"
You look in the mirror and realize,
"I AM what I do. I AM what I love. I AM what I have. I AM the one and only original."
The answer is YOU,
The true you,
Your passions create your personality and create you.
The true you can not be seen with the naked eye,
Nor can it be described in a few words or even a story,
You describe yourself through what you do and what you love.
The inner beauty will shine through.

Author's Note

Inspired by the many people who have lost connections with themselves.
