We Aren't The Same

We Aren't The Same

A Poem by ROXANE DORSEY

I can't make you see 
what I see.
You can't hear what 
I hear. You can try
to do what I do. 
Never the same out-
come is to become
of it.
You and I are two 
different individuals
with character flaws.
That's what makes us
unique, our different
flaws aren't identically 
the same.

This is literally what they should be teaching us in school. Just saying this is how people should feel.

I liked the above lines Roxane. You are right. Differed make us the same sometimes. Thank you for sharing the amazing poetry.

Roxanne,
Your words are full of wisdom. Simple truths that they are, too many people misunderstand others and frequently use violence to handle situations. good write.

glad you enjoyed the write thanks.
how interesting .... defining a relationship by the uniqueness of flaws ... i love it! makes me smile .. to be honest with our flaws means a relationship has become strong and trusted ... really like "We Aren't The Same" :))))

This certainly makes full sense.

As expressed by Jackie below, we are all unique. So many fractals of a whole spectrum of characterisations. And so that is why it is difficult to find that one who can hear and see just as we do. One that compliments our flaws.

A nice write. One grounded in realism. Nice work.

Hey thanks and glad you could enjoy it.
We are all unique. All of us have different flaws. Some may be similiar. But definitely not the same. We all have our own stories and nobody outside of ourselves truely understands the way we individually do ourselves. A lovely read. And very true

love poetry since it has been embedded in my mind deeply way back when I was 4 years old. A very good reader in pre-school. Nursery rhymes tuned me in even deeper. more..
