Others Are Us

Others are us in every way

They share our thoughts, hopes, and dreams

We often forget that we are not alone

To others, we are, in different scenarios

Their laughter resonates with us

Their tears fall in the same way

Their hearts beat with the same rhythm

Their souls shine with a similar radiance

We may look different on the outside

But inside we are all one

We all want love and acceptance

We all have fears and hide our shame

In every struggle, we are the others

They face the same battles as we do

We may not see it, but they are fighting

Just like us, to do it

We can judge and hate

But in the end, we're all just human

We all make mistakes and we all learn

We all have flaws, we all have burdens

To others, we are in every way

They share our humanity, our essence

If we open our hearts and minds

Let's find beauty in our common being

So let's be kind and understanding

Others are us, and we are them

Let's spread love, let's spread kindness

Because in the end, we are all just gems.
