No Difference
Flesh and bones heart and soul
Cold as ice or heart of gold
Flowing long hair or even bald
Short or tall fat or small
This is the makeup of us all
In many ways we are all the same
With the exception of maybe our names
We are born to live and yet born to die
People please open your eyes
Although we have different paths
And different lives
In the end is death and we will all close our eyes
Until that time please look around and see
You are better than no one
You are the same as me
