We get hungry.

We get tired.

We pay bills.

We played when we were kids,

dreaming of the future.

We fall in love.

We get heartbroken.

We get in quarrels.

We have problems.

We have fears.

We have hopes.

We love our parents.

We like to party.

We love to laugh.

Sometimes we cry.

We get sad.

We get happy.

We get hurt.

We learn.

We grow old.

We love.

We hate.

We sleep and rise the next day

to work,

to cook,

to shower.

We go to coffee shops,

to school,

to weddings,

to funerals,

We are born.

We bleed.

We die.

We are just like you.
