Identity Theft

Can you find me?
Surrounded by fake identity
Who am I?
Who was I?
How to act?
How to love?
How to try to be normal?
Please help me!
One big question mark clothes me and darkness
What am I?
Where am I?
Who could I be?
Try to stay calm
But how
Lost all alone
What is my identity?

About This Poem

Last Few Words: This is how I feel in high school. Trying to figure out who to be and what to act like.Who to hang with and who to avoid. Its really cool though how many of my friends have read this poem and got the message i was trying to convey.

I'm glad...

that I found this one! It reminded me of when I was in high-school, but was so sure of myself and that I didn't need anyone but my close circle of friends. Man, how much I deprived myself of! [But my main object was to avoid school as much as possible] and I didn't worry about the 'losers' that kept going to school. I didn't grow up until I was much older and got a GED and attended a couple of semesters of college. I know it sounds cliche, but just be you! You sound like you have your act together. I like the theme, your title drew me in and your pattern, word use and logic was good from beginning to end. ~ Geez.
