    This is just a heartfelt message. We all take for granted what we have sometimes. We look in the mirror and think we are the most disgusting creatures on earth, yet there are people who envy us because we have all our limbs, are able to walk, etc.

    The stanza talking about the disfigured child's face... oh God... tore me up. :(

    This is an amazing piece, great job!

    I love the message you have given in this poem. The idea that someone out there is always worse off than we are. That it could be worse. I love that.

    I have to admit that I am one of those people you are talking about in the first three stanzas. That is me and those were my exact wishes.

    I love what you have written here. Sometimes I do wish I thought about myself differently but I think that I just can't help it. I don't think that anyone can.

    Awesome and powerful.

    Yes, sometimes I wish I could be someone different in the inside, I guess stronger, just so I could accept the way I am but times takes care of it. It slowly takes care of it.

    so many people want to be look different but we for some odd reason are never satisfied, and I guess we will never truly ever be.

    I like the way you approached the topic and how this poem can make people stop and think, that we have everything we need. We can walk, we can breathe, we may not have the best attributes but hey we are good.

    5/5
