Where is me

Merna Aziz 1998 (Fayoum)



Who am I ?

Am I the polite one that show politeness to be respected from people

Or am I the rude one that attract people with his rudeness

Or am I the mental one that tried to show that he is so clever

Or am I the stupide one

And there is much more

I have created many of me

But which one of them is me?

Which one of them is the real me?

I had played many characters for years

That I can't remember

I can't remember how the real me was like
 
Does the real me was that bad?!

Did it deserve to be forgotten like this?

I can't remember

All I can remember

Is trying to be accepted from people

I tried to be like them so they can accept
me

Me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But where is me ?

There is no me any more

I can see many of these characters that I had created

They are standing in circles around me

They are so many

And so different

How can I be all of them?

Maybe me is one of them

But if he is one of them

How will I know him ?!

I can remember nothing about him

Or is it even still here?

Is it even one of them?

I had refused me and I wanted other people to accept him

 I won't create more characters

I don't want to be accepted anymore

I just want me
 
I just want to find me

I wish one day I can find him
