I am not original.
I am bits
And I am pieces
Of every person
I've ever met.

I am not original.
I am my mother
And my father.
All the good
And the bad
They put in my genes.

I am not original.
I am my friends.
I am the shows I watch.
I am the music I listen to.
I am the art I love.

I am not original.
I am a compilation
Of everything meaningful in my world.

I am not original.
But it's okay,
Because neither are you.
