who are you? who am i?
A Poem by
Jamil Isimbabi
Who are you?Who am I?
I'm alive
You're alive
Who are you? Who am I?
I shall die
You shall die
Who are you? Who am I?
I am you
You are I
One entity
Two divides
I am you
You are I
When you realize
The soul inside
I am you
You are I
Body and flesh
Soul and mind
I am you
You are I
Bones are white
Skies are blue
You are you
I am I

Nice question mark and the poem too :). This poem is so introspectively woven I actually hurt my brain trying to keep up with the questions (kidding). It has a nice rhythm and it definitely woke me up this morning...I'm kick started now.

searching of identity and a place in this world is a very tough request, your poem is thought provoking.

Nice flow of thoughts in the poem. I like how you weaved the words and the thoughts. Words need to cause reaction and thoughts. Your poetry did. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.
