The world


The worlds a scary place

Full of mean horrible people

People who judge people on their race

on how much a body takes up space

On how many tests one can ace

And yet everyone has happiness to chase 

 

Instead of judging someone on their thighs 

Looks at the joy and love that fills their eyes

Rather than judging on the color of skin

Focus on what the person they are within 

And don’t just expect people to get an “A”

Listen to their voice within; 

to what they have to say.
