Who am I?
I do not know
Two parts, may be
One is a saint
But the repulsive, often, takes over
Who am I?
If not in the eyes of others I see me
A rowdy, little rough in the core
The saint wants to atone for
The vapid that knows nothing
A swimmer-with-the-current
That knows very little
The shunned that knows nothing
The wanna-be that fails
In all the things that matter
Why can't I just be?
A plain plain being.

The everlasting question..
why cant we just be..As much as we try to be PLAIN,spontaneous and US , we still fail, because we are surrounded with masks that forces us to be what we are asked to be
I have no answer to the question...sadly
