Am I? Not Yet!

Am I? Not Yet!

I am tired of all the people

Assuming they know who I am.

If I don't know yet, how can they?

Their idea of me is really a sham.

Am I shy? Am I outgoing?

Who am I supposed to be?

Am I silly? Am I serious?

Who I am is still a mystery.

I am not yet me at this moment.

Right now, I'm not done growing inside.

And I can't deal with people telling me who I am.

I haven't yet found the real me, but I've tried.

My journey is not yet over,

I still have very much more to see.

And hopefully somewhere along the way,

I will finally figure out who is me.
