Paper People
June 26, 2017
Easily torn, but only if pulled in a certain way.
You can step on them to get what you want and they will never be the same.
Some get shunned for being "messed up" or because they aren't "the same".
Some are appreciated...
Some aren't.
They come in different shapes, sizes and colors.
They make mistakes and start revolutions.
Lives are many, but important to few.
You see these paper people inhabit this Earth...
These paper people are me and you.

The world today veiws all people differently based on religion, status, ethnicity, and body type, but we all fail to realize at one point or another that we are all important and we are all "damaged" and have imperfections. I feel that instead of putting eachother down and judging one another. We need to lift eachother up.
