A True Story Of Being Me

I live my life in a host of stories
connected to other people's
stories in various ways
I understand and identify things
by placing them in the stories
I tell about them and then
find myself caught in a web

A web so perplexed I am
unable to tell the difference
between reality, or not -
fragments of the imagination?
or fragments of real life drama?

After careful consideration,
no sleep, tossing and turning
my reality includes everything
that is and has been -
a true story of being me
