What Am I
by George J. Carroll → (All Poetry by George J. Carroll)

Stepping out from an illusion,

That has had me trapped.

Into reality of a world unknown.

 

I seem to have a limited concept

Of what is real and what is not.

Though what has reality to compare

To the world I have known?

 

There is a complex unknown

That I have escaped from.

It seems, while there, no reality

Existed to implant a thought.

 

Am I not a reality? I ask myself.

Again, I know not what reality is.

I have escaped from the unknown,

Into a maze of thought, confused.

From your writing I don't find much confusion. You are very wise and purposeful person, showing the way for many with your work. That's the real I see it you

Each day we open the door we go into the unknown until reality comes to us.

I enjoyed reading this. I think we each have our own reality. What we see is our reality, because we don't know what we don't see.

Very deep, my man! The unknown surrounds us all wanting to grab our coat tails and drag us into it........or are we in it already believing that reality is the unknown? Cool write!

Love ya!
