You Are What You Are.

In this life you see others,

Others who you want to be.

They may be better looking

And you wish to look like them,

They may be able to solve impossible problems

Problems that you don’t understand,

Their art work may be sublime

Where you find it impossible

To draw anything recognisable,

They play music that tears the emotions from you,

But all you can do is make a strange noise,

They can write words of wonder and passion on a page

Instead of the ramblings that you create.

This state of mind is normal,

You may have something that others would like,

Compassion, kindness, generosity and love.

You cannot be anyone else,

You are what you are,

Everybody else is taken.
