who am I

Some say I am a blessing,
A divine gift to my family,
Bringing joy to my parents' lives,
Completing their love story.

Some say I am my father's pride,
The first fruit of his fatherhood,
A sprout from the seed he planted,
Unveiling the tenderness within.

Some say I am my mother's daughter,
Born against the odds, yet strong,
Raised by a woman of unwavering will,
Moulded into a resilient, independent soul.

Some say I am just a soul,
Seeking refuge in this human form.
But is that all I am?
A fleeting spirit?
Who am I truly?.
