wanting humanity to be alive


Our generation 

 So messed up

Killing innocent people for no reason

 

 Accusing a religion for something 

A group of evil people did

White man shooting a black 

 “Self defense” as he calls it

 When did we become so racist and unfair?

I thought that ended.

Daughters being taken away

 From mothers

Screaming, fighting 

 Blood being splattered

Their mom yelling for help

Countries terrorizing other countries

Girls not allowed to getting an education

Men or woman

Hitting, slapping, raping, abusing

People say that is wrong

Yet they won't stand up for what is right

I see the pain in people’s eyes

The world is crying

I See humans but

Not humanity
