Preface
Life is a mystery and sometimes we try to unravel it only to find that it is becoming more and more complex. Searching for 'Who am I' is a part of this process and this poetry is an effort to showcase this desire of sokving the mystery.
Who am I
I do not know,
Who am I.
Neither my purpose,
Nor my body in exile.
There was no point,
In sending me here.
I was in complete calm,
In that treasure.
I only added to the liabilities here,
As a face unwanted.
I only added to the difficulties here,
As if a curse granted.
I seek my Lord,
An ansswer to my existence.
Do not test me more,
I have't any resistence.
Call me back,
At an earliest.
That is the only wish,
At my behest.
Endnote
Searching for oneself and one's identity is a relentless pursuit. Many of us do it but mystery remains as it was and then the only option is to call upon God to resolve it in His own ways.
