WHAT AM I w h mollohan 11-29-14
Call me a name, push me a bit, call me dirt
That is just false shame, I’d rather be hit, but it does not hurt
Stares, whispers, glances, attitudes, and disgust
Wow for now! A person that I will not hear or trust
I am so far from a nobody – because I am somebody
I am so near to close – I don’t have to ask anybody
I am your neighbor & your buddy – I am here on planet earth
I am gonna stay here for everything – EVERYTHING that I am worth
I am NOT nobody’s nobody – because I AM me
I do not have to prove to anybody – that I am free
I talk like this, this way –I walk like that, that way – being 'the who' I chose
A somebody does not seek popularity –whether, if today I win or if I lose
Learning, competing & excellence, yes those do count
Those others’ antics – yes, other people’s games – those I refuse
I am NOT nobody's nobody -- because I AM me
Yes, I am ... my own version of me ... I AM my own ... somebody
