True Me




This face is a collection of faces
moulded from the genic pool of
ancestral inheritance

It is not my face
It is their face this physical face

I give to this face
the light in these eyes
the lines or lack of lines earned
through grimace, laughter and tears
crevices shaped by years of
being Me

a notion of Me

It was never really Me
Living has been a lie
up until Now

It was never really Me

I find the mask dropping
slipping away
like clouds dissapating
revealing a blue sky and
a radiant sun

and that splendid light is Me
the real me

Stepping out of the world
and into my own Self.
