Poetry

Who?

What makes a king?

What makes a man?

What makes a person who they are and what they are

Is it just chance

Or some divine being

A puppet master made of stars

What makes a queen?

What makes a woman?

What makes a person who they are and what they are

Is it a flip of a coin

Or some ancient mystery

Watching over us since forever began

Who are we?

Why are we here?

Are we even really here

Or is this all a dream 

Made up in the mind of a sleeping child

The people we see and the sounds we hear

And the air we breathe and the love we feel

Is it real?
