I am a nobody

I am a Nobody
(in a certain place (army) ... I am a Nobody)

Inspired by "The Fool", who composed the poem;
Are we all fools?

These eyes they look me up and down
But I am not the one they see
For I am but a nobody
But I wasn't meant to be

As I drifted by pass many
All they see are the wrongs and flaws of me
Oblivious to my blood and tears
Shed for reasons unrelated and unjust

These hearts they beat so fast with fury
But against my pain they feel no guilty
For I am but a nobody
But i wasn't meant to be

As I reached my hands for mercy
All these others ignoring me
Pretending not to hear my pleas
While trying not to seem like beasts

These voices they wound me with their words
And den they said this ain't the worst
For I am but a nobody
But i wasn't meant to be

Mama used to say to me
You're my pride & the world to me
Thats when i knew i was never nobody
For they're that ones who're meant to be

(Another ending line for thought:
Thats when I knew I was somebody
For nobody can ever be me.)
