Who Am I?: A Selection of Reflective Poems

By Fatema Valji

We live in a highly sensory, digitised world, saturated with all the advantages of scientific and material advancement. Naturally, we live healthier, longer and more comfortable lives than ever before. Our overflowing cup, however, is not without a drop of bitterness. Sometimes, our lives spiral into circular discontent. In the unrelenting pursuit of materialistic objectives, we may be left with a gnawing sense of loss deep within.
This collection of poems seeks to express an inner conversation that resonates in the relatability of the dilemmas, aspirations, hopes and fears explored. They probe our quintessentially human longing to reach the deeper truth and objectives of this journey of endless possibility that we call life. For the poetry lover and the complete novice - these poems will inspire young and old alike

I am mud,
The quintessence of dust,
Humble grit, non-descript

Yet within my grime lies
A ray of His pure light,
Colourless, raceless, non-finite
