# Concept No. 1 - Who are you ? [MY FIRST DTUBE VIDEO] (Original poetry)

in #poetry7 years ago (edited)


This is a video of my first poetry. Below are the lyrics :-

So many false identities
but so far away from the reality
you give names
you give religion
you give yourself, too many personalities,
but still fail, to find the truth
the truth about your actuality
and lose yourselves amongst the crowd suppressing your originality.

We deny this talk, we shoo our kids away
Coz we too were ignored
when asked, why did we originate?

But do you realise,
the chaos, to which it gave a rise
this question being ignored
is making us pay a huge price.

Too many fights,
happening on religions
you say yours is right
you say other's is wrong
you take a solid stand
for something so unknown
How still so confident, still so strong?

You see how you have formed
an image of your own
which has always been changing
since the time you were born

Sometimes so upset of yourself
sometimes saying that you are a boy
sometimes calling yourself and Indian
and sometimes fighting for your Pride

You Sometimes become a father,
& for someone, you are still a child
you have so many identifications, but the real one is hidden
this fact can't be denied.

You judge people on a slab, higher or lower than yourself
but what's even worse is that,
that you even judge yourselves.

Each and every moment of your lives
Is getting affected because of these lies
these lies that you call conclusions
these lies that don't answer anything, instead just leaves confusions.

Did you ever think you would have been someone else
if you were instead born
at a place too distant,
at a rich house or if you had poor parents
you would think like someone else
if you're situations were different.

So does that mean whatever you believe
about yourself, about your colleagues
about other people, about certain things
it's all vague, it's fantasy.

If your conditioning, was your truth
that means when you weren't born, you were a nobody
but if that was the case,
why would you've been born at the first place?

So it concludes that it's all incorrect,
whether you think yourself a failure
or are proud of your success
whether you vanity, your mortal beauty
or you are an owner of big and huge property

I can disclose it all today, who you really are & what's your fate,
but your believes, won't allow me to speak
so instead I would want, you find it yourself
by following,
this one simple plan,

If you can't find who you are
then start with knowing who you aren't
You are neither a loser, nor a winner
neither an employee, nor an employer
you are not a doctor, you are not a parent
you are not a child
you are not a religion.

Just one by one remove these false identities,
and soon you will find you are no one what earthlings say
But a small expression of this vast divinity.
