Today’s NaPoWriMo prompt is: Write in your alter-ego’s voice.

I peer at old photographs,

with a magnifying glass,

I visit old locations, review conversations,

read between the lines, note pivotal times,

I jot down aberrations, motivations and accusations,

list suspects and personal effects,

I wonder what ifs, revisit past tiffs,

pull up the archives of my own mind,

I watch others go on with their lives,

talk to experts who testify,

I sort through the lies.

I question so much,

but it’s not enough, it’s not enough,

as I spread out all my clues,

I still don’t know where I disappeared to.
