Analysis of Just Me
Eric Selorio 1948 (Zamboanga)
I am not the way they see me
Sometimes I wish I am
I am not the way they think of me
But there are times I wish I am
What difference would it be
Whatever they think of me
What's there in me they see
Is all that I have to be
I could be nothing to them at all
Just another living soul
Nothing special to those who see
And that's what I intend to be
For I am who I am
There's nothing else to blame
For you see what you see
A simple person and it is "Just Me"
