Striving for acceptance
Want to be adored
Content to feel cherished
Not alienated and ignored
Compromising individuality to not be divided
Variety is the spice of life
Each man women a treasure island
Jewels to be uncovered
Faceted sides to be discovered
Each light and shadow cast a mast to set our sails
Focus on the accomplishments in all weather tales
Stories we tell that we didn't do so well
Yes we did we fought the giant squid
Prised apart from the ink blotted dart
Pulled away from its tangled tentacle sway
Made it to today
Lived to have our say
Felt it from the heart
