The Same Within

Different features
Different shades of skin
But we are all the same within

Different nations
Same earth
Everyone fighting for a plot of dirt

Different accents
Millions of smiles
Yet it's sad that we are separated by miles

Different, individual minds
Same desire to love
So why all this push and shove?

Different people
All kinds of shapes
But somehow we must all relate

Different? Yes
But we are all human
That is why we are the same within

March 1996 and Sept. 2010
