Who am I?
I search for the answer in the souls of others
What I find is all too misleading
To men, I am nothing more than my curves
Something to lust after and grope
I am a pretty face with a tragic heart
With my heart as an obstacle and my face the target
Who am I?
If you ask my mother
I am a wonderful creature that can do no wrong
A light in the dark
A burst of magic in a dreary world
The sweetest pair of sunshine eyes
Her own little piece of happiness
Who am I though?
If you ask my sister
I’m a promiscuous being
A wild flirt turning chaos into adventure
I’m fun and free and full of life
A belly full of laughs
And a mind full of dreams
Still, who am I?
If you ask my husband
I’m a great mother and a caring wife
A sweet girl with a lost soul
Indecisive, lonely and scared
A hopeless romantic who’s forgotten how to love
Someone who can’t be trusted
But who am I?
If you ask me, I have no clue
I’m a wildfire consuming life in its path
I’m a daring fool with an open heart
The most selfish selfless person to walk this Earth
I’m a carefree, spirited lover
With an emptiness that has yet to be filled
Maybe now you don’t want to know me
But if you still do, good luck
Excellent poem! I love the way you paint a picture of how others percieve you. I feel the same way: depending on who you ask, you’ll get different answers!

I love this. In the end though, does it really matter how others perceive you? They would all be biased anyway. The important part is finding out who you are, for yourself.

Yea, that’s the point. That I know how they see me but it still doesn’t feel completely right to me. Only I can determine who I am.
