I've been searching endlessly.
Looking for a way out...
or a way in.
The border between a society-driven life
and a purpose-driven life
has become blurred and unclear.

Who am I?
I ask myself this frequently,
yet never receive an answer.
Perhaps one day
I will find the answer to my question.
At the moment,
I am no one.
For I do not have a clear purpose
or an exact image.

I pray that I might look into that mirror again,
and see myself as myself.
Until then,
however,
I shall call myself "Nobody."
Because surely,
someone who screams
"Who am I?"
on a regular basis,
has no true identity.
Part 2 of "My Identity". A compilation of feelings from people I know and myself....there will be several parts but for now I've only made 3. I'm not sure how many more there will be. There is a 1 year time lapse between the 2nd and 3rd parts and a 1-2 year time lapse between the 1st and 2nd parts. I hope you like them.
