What Is One

One is only as strong as their weaknesses There amongst the soul a feel to survive Failure, not option but choice one chooses What is one but only what you make A person of integrity you bend rules Among the stranger we call friends Your morals fall way side to impress Being like the world we forget Who is one except they be different That in yourself you be one A fine example to mankind you paint A footprint one wants to follow To be like but not be of Setting our own, each one a replica Made of similar human DNA Same emotions but yet not same Different mindset could carry attitude We struggle to change, even demon that walks Who is one but their own success Trail of many a different step But the same initiative the path Wanting to achieve goal of life To live, be free, to know love To know our own self is deep But are you willing to go its depths Where darkness is fear's hunger But your faith, light at end of tunnel What is one, only what you allow to exist
