What We Really Are

Location

You look at me different

yet we are the same.

you tell me i am something

of which to be ashamed.

why cant you see

that we are alike.

YOU are exactly like ME.

we are human beings.

we both have hearts.

And from two people who loved.

is where we both start.

at night we both sleep

at pain we both cry

yet somehow you think

you are different from i?

if i could change one thing

its how you feel

because what makes us alike

is what makes us real.

one day we will both die

but we are living today.

so why don't we stop

avoid eachothers way.

i just want to change one thing...

and if you listened so far,

you would know that living breathing humans

is what we really are.
