This is fine haiku, Gahdess Worship. I take this as a plea for honesty. Hopefully that stranger will remove the mask.

Thank you Crowfly! It's actually a plea to embrace and accept one's self...the stranger is me.

Isn't it eery to acknowledge
the unknown depths
in oneself ...
I do love your haiku.

It really is but so complete;y liberating as well. The authentic self is a hard won thing.
Thank you so much, Miss Chi, for reading and commenting.

Thank you so much Blue! I am glad that you find this empowering...I felt relief as well. It's a beautiful thing to take ownership of who we truly are.

Solomon, you get me. Your understanding of my motivation is spot on. I struggle with identity. Thank you for your concise comment.

The title of your poem (taken literally) and my thoughts of a mirror image led me to write the poem posted in the Self section, Is It Really Me?
