The Face

.

You are not
your identity,
not your name,
not money,
not shares
and holdings,
not your story.

Not your job,
or home,
not the things
you own.
Not people met,
not chance
encounters.

You are not
the face
in the mirror.
You are not
the body
that's here.

You are the driver
behind the wheel,

the operator
of the machine.

You are the observer,

the self that is seeing.

You are the choice-maker,

the soul in the being.
