I woke up inside a borrowed morning
Sunlight asking nothing of my name
The mirror held a stranger quietly
As if my face had never learned its aim
I walk among unfinished sentences
Left behind by people passing through
Every step feels slightly unrequested
Like a word that no one meant to use
They say we’re here to leave a mark somewhere
But the ground forgets our weight in time
I listen to the sound of breathing
Wondering if that alone is fine
If I vanished like a minor season
Would the air adjust, then move along
Or is there something in this pulse
That insists my absence would be wrong
So tell me, why was I born at all
Not as a promise, not as a plan
Just as a question shaped like flesh
Trying to understand
I’m not chasing meaning like a crown
I’m not begging heaven for a sign
I just want to know
If living is enough
Without a reason carved in stone
I’ve loved without knowing what it leads to
Held regret like it was something warm
I’ve mistaken noise for being needed
And silence for the shape of wrong
Some days feel like borrowed chapters
From a book I’ll never get to read
Still I turn the page each morning
As if that act itself might mean
Maybe purpose isn’t something found
Maybe it’s the way we hesitate
Standing on the edge of asking why
Still choosing to participate
So tell me, why was I born at all
If answers never show their face
If all I am is a moment
Learning how to stay
I’m not searching for a final word
Or a role I’m meant to play
I just want to know
If breathing here and now
Is already okay
If meaning comes, I’ll let it come
If not, I’ll still remain
A quiet question walking forward
Alive
And asking all the same
