Poem #2: Dear Real Self

Hello, I hope you enjoyed the last poem. This one is going to be really long, and I hope you'll enjoy this too! Time to question yourself. I already questioned myself. Lots of times.

========================

"Dear Real Self"

Dear real self,
Where have you gone?
You aren't in my mind or my heart.
I can't hear you in any song,
It feels like we've drifted apart.

You aren't with the others,
I can't find you anywhere.
Then I remember,
That you were never here.

I have no real self.
Only pieces that are now masks.
Am I okay in mental health?
Were you ever shown in my past?

Dear real part,
When will you arrive?
I'm tired of waiting.
Is there not enough time?
Here I am, slowly fading.

Do I have to find you all alone?
Or do I have to create you?
I will try to find you a home,
I must find out the truth.

I'll journey through obstacles to find you.
For I know that I am incomplete.
The only thing that people think of me,
Is the mask I show them, the mask I wear.

Dear real piece,
Do I need help in the journey?
Must I do it with friends?
Or do you only want to see me?
Then will they see you in the end?

Why is it hard showing who I really am?
I'm tired of wearing my many masks.
In the past, I can't see you.
In the present, you're no truth!
In the future, will you be here?

I don't know what to do,
Because it's hard finding you.
Just like with some people,
Hard to find, easy to lose.
But I never found you.
So I never lost you.

...

Dear real me,
Who are you?

Inspiration/Reason: Ok, the reason why I made this is because of certain reasons. It's kinda personal, so I don't want to say. Although it's probably pretty obvious, as you can see it in the entire poem.

Emotion: Questioning, ponder, curiosity. Is there more I need to say?
