Who am I?


What is Briana Scott?

Young, beautiful, thoughtful, quiet, self-conscious,

determined, creative...Lost. 

I don't really know what I'm supposed to be doing 

with this life of mines.

With religion, love, faith or otherwise.

I wish I knew just what to do.

Inside there is an extraordinary longing

for something that I do not know.

This world, plant Earth,

the universe, what is all of this?

Who am I? What am I?

If Earth is just a grain of sand,

then where do I, Briana Scott, stand?

I am utterly lost. Unfulfilled.

Life is just a mere thought, 

that once thought of disappears. 

So why struggle and be confused with myself

and this...everything?

I know who I am, yet

I am clueless to who I am.

I know something of a greater power exists.

I would ask it who am I,

...if I had one wish.

 

-Briana
