Being my 'Me' and others' 'You'

Me and my identity,

Hidden within me. 

How are you? 


 

Many eyes, different faces to look at 

My distinct form in their faces 

But the same 'me' that I have always carried

But something instead,

They do it themselves.

 

Many 'you' stories,

My name is the same. 

But you need to look at it differently to know

What I barely understand. 

How much 'you' has been made inside 'me'?


 

For the question everyone raises. 

I have a separate 'you' answer, 

They are scattered on the pages of wise, 

Many of my 'you' form colors, 

They are woven into different threads. 


 

The essence of my behavior: but, 

I am the 'me' that I know 

Which perhaps only I know, really.

One question I would like to ask others—

How did you find me lost in those 'I' forms of 'you'?

Deception of sight, 

How do you accept the scars of thinking?

I feel like I am with this 'I' 

This 'I' seems to be me 

That I do not know that 'I' was lost?
