I wasn’t born a dog…

to be patted and petted for love.

I wasn’t born a cat…

To roam the streets nor climb the fences for attention,

I wasn’t born a fish…

To swim the entangled oceans of rubbish, in search for a home,

I wasn’t born a bird…

To fly, encircle and follow, or to peck for worms,

I wasn’t born a snake…

To slither, slide and attack for peace,

I wasn’t born an elephant…

To be tied with a rope, enclosed in a prison in search of freedom,

I was born just like You Me We…
