Who will make me real?

Was I born of a lie
in a country that did not exist
Am I one tribe at the confluence of two opposing bloods?
But perhaps am not.
But of course am not, your equations prove it,
even while lowering my voice i do not hear the sea,
nor do I hear the light
Who will make me real?
Threatened therefore being
Fearful, therefore frightening
Erect therefore a flame tree
Who will make me real?
