Somewhere in the World...


 

Somewhere in the world, 
A man is born and a happy mother's crying. 
Somewhere in the world,
He is lorn because another's dying. 
 
Somewhere in the world,
he is looking for food to eat. 
Somewhere in the world,
a man's committing gluttony. 
 
Somewhere in the world,
a man is loved by everyone around him. 
Somewhere in the world,
he is hated even without kin. 
 
Somewhere in the world,
I am he and a man is me. 
Somewhere in the world, 
I am either strong or weak.

I'm a very judgmental yet sympathetic 16 year old Mexican-American man. I think... a lot. I think so much that I think about my thinking.
