Brave lives

Some people lead very brave lives. Lives, if they were mine, I would never have been able to pull through. It makes me think of strong a human can be to lead their lives, all moment brave while I try to hide in my blanket of comfort, my bubble of fiction. 
Those who do not have the world's beauty, 
Walk with their head held high
Even if they're stared at, 
They're not afraid to try.
Those who do not have the world's view
Speak with broadened wide eyes
Even if they're laughed at,
They're not afraid to cry.
Those mouths which speak oddly
Those mouths which speak wise
Those bodies without the common limbs 
Those faces without the common smiles
Have such character in their selves
And a glimmer in their eyes
You'd find it hard to believe because so did I
That maybe my self is more incomplete 
Than someone's body or eyes.
