'crayons'

We are like a box of crayons Diverse and unique The difference is; crayons Does not battle to be the best color in the box They are content in creating a stunning picture No matter if one color got preference over the other We need to stop making life a competition The joy of putting each other down Last only as long as your effort is highlighted Tomorrow something else takes centre stage The only person left with the scar is the one you put down today For your temporary moment in the limelight Life is about more than that
