Identity Thief

In the absence

Of authenticity,

We devolve

Into remnants

Of reality

And become

Figments

Of

Truth.

One lie is

All it takes

To make 

A mirage

Out of

Mirrors.

Even when we 

Face

Our own reflection,

It is not us

Who is staring back.

But is it really

Change

If we do not

See

What has changed?

The core of our identity

Lies in identifying

The core

Of who we are

In the first

Place.

Without our

Authentic

Self,

Are we anything

Short

Of an

Identity

Thief?
