All I Need
All I need is fairness in a world
where it seems it does not exist.
Where it feels as though
every ounce of what I do
is measured and judged by people
who don’t have a right to look at me
the way that they do.
I dream of equality
in a society who sees everyone
differently.
We live in a place where each person
has a rank.
There is always one person
better than another.
We abide in a place where
the color of your skin is more important
than the government
breaking apart rapidly.
Gay marriage is accepted,
but we cannot get acceptance
for who we were born to be.
I could easily abide
if all I had was a place
in which we can live freely,
not just exist.
A world where everyone is loved,
not just coped with.
I do not want to be overseen anymore.
I want to be recognized.
