Who are you without the echo of those who lived in the past,
Who are you without your childhood shaken and recast,
Who are you under your emotions that never last,
Who are you under your thoughts that come thick and fast?
Who are you under your kingdom of desires so vast,
Who are you without the memories of events that have passed?
Who are you without the skin you wear with tattoos and scars,
Who are you under the wonder you feel while looking at the stars?
Who are you beyond a shadow under the waning and waxing moon?
Who are you beyond the anticipation of something awaited soon,
Who are you beyond the bearer of a curse or a boon,
Who are you beyond the reader of a tarot card or rune?
Who are you beyond the wearer of a name and face,
Who are you beyond the member of a nation or a race?
Who are you beyond a rodent in the rat race?
Who are you beyond a speck of stardust in the infinite space.
