We Are All Human

This is the most human feeling we have 
To experience what it is to be 
Is to experience a life of the unexpected 
The unknown 
Truth 
Vows 
Promises 

It's very human to want more
But it's even more human to give 
To need less 
Want less 
Give more

It's human to have a connection 
With the waves of the water
The blue of the sky 
The green of the grass 
And the peace of the earth 

We are all human 
As we stare into the sky 
As the ones before us once did 
The same clothes on our backs 
As the ones before 
The time stays the same 
As the world is the one that is always changing 

And like the ones before
Centuries from now
We will stand 
On the same hill 
Staring into the same sky 
As we still wonder about the past 
And wish for the future

    I'm 14. 
    And I just saw Bruce Springsteen
    Live for the first time. 

    I've loved him and his music since I was 6. 
    I've listened to him religiously since I was 7.

    018751 this was the lunch code I was given 
    My first day of third grade 
    My teacher wrote on my hand 
    With a green marker that smelled like berries 

    018751 this was the passcode for my first email
