Confused.


How does someones personal life affect yours?

How are they possibly ruining your time on Earth?

You, judging someone who isn't hurting anyone starts wars. 

 

Is it too much to look away?

On a swing, they sway

Will you kick them off?

Make a disgusted face when you walk by

or will you make an awkward cough? 

 

You will never know how much pain someone has endured. 

You will go home and sit in your comfy king-sized bed. 

You will make homophobic, racist, bigot remarks.

You will not care. 

You will not take a second to think about it. 

 

I am confused. 

As to why you can't be open-minded.

Times have changed. 

Why can't you? 

 

Confused.
