who am I
I'm not a poem,
'cause I don't rhyme.
I'm not a poet,
'cause I can't write.
I'm not a song,
'cause I'm all wrong.

I'm not a writer,
'cause I can't jot my thoughts .
I'm not a book,
'cause my story is in knots.
I'm not a secret,
'cause I'm lost in the crowd
I'm not a whisper,
'cause I'm too loud.

I'm not a shadow,
'cause I'm too dark.
I'm not a scar,
'cause I don't leave a mark.
I'm not a heartbeat,
'cause I don't have a rhythm.
I'm not an answer,
'cause I bring questions with them.

I'm not a letter,
neither a number nor a scale.

then who am I?
I ask myself everyday.
for answers I search,
"you'll find them soon", they say.
