Me

I Am
So many things
I am different from others
I care about the things that the others overlook
I am Me
I am watching the birds while you talk to your friends
But when you run down to me they fly away
You complain when I be myself
but who am I, if not me?
Who are you, if not you?
I am me, forever more,
not changing, just being who I am.
Just 
Me.

    Just a traveler. 

    But what are you? 

    Why, a human, of course, you didn’t know?
