One of Us

Tweet

Strangers walk around us So what makes them so different? The color of their skin? Is it their eyes or their hair? What if you saw a stranger smiling at you? Would you smile back? Would you pretend that you didn't see him? What if he asked how you were? Would you answer, or would you just ignore him? What if he wanted to shake your hand? Would you? What if you knew that stranger from a dream you had? Would you pretend you didn't, and keep walking? What if he asked you what you believed? Would you scoff and tell him to go away? What if that stranger was an angel? Would you see his wings? Would you say: "He is a stranger to me, just as I am to him. So really? What makes him so different?" The truth is, he's really one of us.
