For That Fact

He and I are different you see

 

He has a spare tire around his belly

And mine is soft and riddled with freckles

 

He’s got a part him ravaged by cancer

And I’m tainted with signs of depression

 

His forehead is bigger and smattered with speckles

Mine is pale and hidden with frazzles of blonde hair

 

He thinks economically and can be a bit assuming

I think way too much and yet am ridiculously oblivious

 

But he and I are the same you see

 

Despite the factors in between us

We’re forever linked by kin

And I am forever grateful
