I Don’t See Me
I am lonely, I am troubled
I am thirsty all over
I look at me but I don’t see through
I see some stranger...
I have bruises,
They make me uncomfortable
I have easy cuts,
And it is painful
How I wish life was easier!
Like an eagle I could fly Bukidnon skies,
Or a fish I could swim Camiguin seas,
Or a free butterfly hovering over sampaguitas…
But ironically. I am just me- a struggling survivor,
Washed away from a shipwreck,
I have lived... but weak and torn,
Covered but unclothed…
My eyes, they are staring blank,
I can speak but unable to,
I am restless and weary,
I feel hollow and empty,
I am safe but damn tired…
It becomes harder to recognize her
And all because I see someone else... I see a stranger.
