who am I?

a search within

who am I?
I ask myself,
searching for clues
have we met?
staring
in the mirror,
no one
looks back.
forgettable,
I must be.
wonder if anyone
knows me?
feeling fear
lacing
through me,
my terror
uncovers
there is no one
here.
If I were lost
in a crowd,
would I be found?
am I merely a
mirage of my own
imagining?
a colorless chimera
on an endless path
to nowhere,
perhaps.
am I even a human
others
