The Me you See

 The me you see is not Me

I know in my heart it's not me

A veneer, a charade, a facade may be

Or a chameleon that changes

With every tree

But, for sure, it's not Me.

Now that you know

Could you please let e be

To search for, discover the true Me?

A woman I am, I understand

A daughter, wife, mother

Sister and friend, true

Yet each incomplete

Each a bit and piece of Me

There's more hidden

Submereged in unseen depths

Iceberg like, you see

When life's boat collides

Tries to drown Me

Then the not me Me

Floats to surface

Quick to the rescue

Pulls visible me 

Out of the sea

And thus it goes day in day out

The not me Me stands tall and proud

While in the darkness of the sea

The real Me struggles, cries in pain

Awaiting, awaiting, all in vain.
