Who Am I?

Who am I? I ask myself.
A biomechanical machine?
A conglomerate of chemicals:
Of flesh and bone and dreams.

Is there more to me than eye can see?
Does self extend beyond the skin?
Will my soul live on eternally
To see another life again?

What if this is my only chance,
To pass this test of life, I'm taking?
And this finale of the flesh —
My grand opus in the making.

When all that's left are memories,
The only legacy I've left behind,
I ask that you remember me
And there I'll be, inside your mind.
