Just a poem, trying to find my name.

My name


I've been on Earth

Thousands of years

Witnessed their joy

Their pain, and tears


I felt their passion

And shared their fears

Lived in their hearts

More than it appears


I've read their books

Which they didn't write

Some condemned wrong

Some said it's right


Some worshipped darkness

And some glorified light

Thriving in fables

No one proved right


And I sang their songs

And I drank their wine

But I always knew

None of this, was mine


I am the stranger

A species of my own

I'm not like any kind

This planet had known


I've lived on Earth

Before they came

Thousands of years

Looking for an aim


But I found nothing

And it will be same

If I looked forever

Won't find my name
