I try hard to be like him. Look identical with him, Like an identical twin. The way he would speak, I wish to speak. The way he would act, I too want to do, To be unmistakably in character. I wish the brush of my thoughts would paint the picture he would, To myself, and when I think of him or her, I wish to be like him. In words and deeds, I wish to have his character, copy and paste. Have I achieved it? I would say no. So I would keep practicing his ways until I am like him in character, As the words pop out, As the thoughts pop in, As the deeds sway out. I want to be like Jesus, Growing each day like himself.

Character
I try hard to be like him. Look identical with him, Like an identical twin. The way he would speak, I wish to speak. The way he would act, I too want to do, To be unmistakably in character. I wish the brush of my thoughts would paint the picture he would, To myself, and when I think of him or her, I wish to be like him. In words and deeds, I wish to have his character, copy and paste. Have I achieved it? I would say no. So I would keep practicing his ways until I am like him in character, As the words pop out, As the thoughts pop in, As the deeds sway out. I want to be like Jesus, Growing each day like himself.
