Who are you?
Who are you behind those smiles
you wear every day?
Behind those words you rarely meant?
Behind the face everyone knows?
Who is that person you see
in the mirror
whenever you wake up in the morning,
raw and vulnerable...?
That person who cries silent tears, do
you perhaps know him?
Who are you behind the
name you did not choose?

When you are stripped bare
of everything you put up
to be someone you thought
you can be...
Would you still recognize
your own person?

Who are you?
