Changing to Kindness


What would I change?

Maybe the little issue that pops up in the halls

These little groups

That you need to be like them to be accepted

But if you're like them,

Then you're just a copycat

You're not real

Never real

Just a joke that everyone is in on but you

That should change

Groups should be welcoming

They should be supportive

Not destructive and mean

Not bullying those different

The people scared to be involved

All because they were told they can't

I want to change that

To change the welcoming atmosphere

To give everyone a home
