I’m just like you
I bleed when I’m pricked.
I cry when I sleep.
My teary eyes; leaves wet patches on my sheets.
I drink for the good times.
I drink for the sad times.
A toast to the living;
And those soon to join them.
I grieve when in pain.
I hide when in shame.
I laugh and smile, but cry in the rain.
I’m no different from you.
I’m no better than you.
I go through the same things that life offers to you.
Life is really fair; at treating us unfairly.
Life is really fair; at treating us all fairly.
We walk the same street.
We breathe the same air.
The sole of our shoes; kiss the same earth.
So when you see me smiling, know that I frown too.
And when you see me laughing, know that I cry too.
I’m no different from you.
You’re no different from me.
Don’t envy me; for I am just like you.
