Style: Poetry
Statement: I wanted to write this piece to illustrate how we can compare ourselves to one another without an end. However, we never know the true circumstances of another person or what they're insecure about. I think we all need to grow as people and stop comparing ourselves to others so we can finally love ourselves.
beautiful blonde hair
bland black hair
bright blue eyes
boring brown eyes
surrounded by all
accompanied by none
seen the world
never gone beyond town
she has it all
I witness silently
she holds his hand
I hold my own
she waves goodbye
I remain watching
she breaks her smile
I watch from afar
she begins to cry
and then I realize
she doesn't have it all
and I dont have nothing
we all have our fears, our
struggles
our goals, our hopes
you are you
I am me
I am completely okay
with being me
