Self Appraisal.

Look at me,

I'm an ordinary man.

Doing something,

That anybody can.

Weaving words,

And hoping to find a way.

To get people to read,

And think of what I say.

We're no different,

You and me.

Or that vagabond,

Walking down the street.

A billion people,

A billion different dreams.

Living within,

And way beyond our means.

What sets me apart,

Is the choices that I make.

The risks that I,

Will or will not take.

The sweet love,

That someone will soon know.

The broken heart,

And the words that follow.

We all bleed red,

If you cut any color of skin.

We're all the same,

What we are, lies within.

But tell me this,

Are you like me or am I like you?

What's different,

In the things that we do?

If we're all the same,

Then why should I even try.

Like we all live,

Some day we will soon die.

We walk alone,

But we never truly are.

You may feel bad,

But others have seen worse by far.

So stop thinking,

That you stand above the rest.

They're all trying,

It's all an imaginary test.

So step back,

From the varied silent crowd.

Hear my voice,

It may not be that loud.

What I say,

Applies to everyone.

Have some patience,

Your time has just begun.

Look at you,

You're an ordinary man.

Someone else is the same,

You're not the only one who can.

Look at me,

I'm an ordinary man.
