I may be different on the outside but on the inside I'm not so different after all

 After All

 
I'm different not what you 
might expect,
I live this life
and have regrets.
That makes me human
just like you,
my heart beats and bleeds 
as I muddle through.
Life's twist and turns
ups and downs,
I've reached rock bottom 
and turned around.
No one is perfect
but that's ok,
we learn and live by
our past mistakes.
I've grown in ways I
can't explain,
my faith shining bright 
when I suffered in pain.
My soul is a shadow of those
gone before me,
take a closer look
at who I strive to be.
You'll stare into the eyes
of the ones I love best
waiting for me in eternal rest.
 
Maybe I'm not so different after all

Every one of us is unique. Most try to blend in and not be noticed… At least for their flaws, which we all have. It takes a special person to leave that behind and come out in the open living this life on his or her own terms.
