Frustrated

I don’t get it The nicest people with the biggest hearts get treated like poo Its as if everyone is acting like everything is okay like it’s a skit The negativity gets old and dies off, yet the hatred seems to transmit Is it that hard to put away any animosity you have towards someone and commit? In reality in the end we all can benefit Just think…… Where is the love in this world anymore? Teens still being bullied and girls still getting called whores People hating themselves for being different, they spend their times at the liquor store Late nights, asking themselves why, drinking so much they hit the floor Having an end result of having bruises and being sore It seems we are all still fighting our own personal wars Yet there is nothing wrong beating your own drum and wanting to explore There shouldn’t be any hate or judgment anymore Let’s once again help one another come together and help restore So in the end we can all rest ashore I hate the world we live in today The violence, the judgments, the assumptions, the hatred, and the betrays Seeing other people who are different having to repay from all the disarray Blacks, whites, shorts, obese, Americans, Natives, Hispanics, Gays We are all different like papier-mâché, and that’s okay Yet we are all the same on the inside, all one way So put all the drama behind us, and let’s be a good model on the display Any thoughts or comments?

So true... well written & welcome to PS. I think this a worldwide phenomenon. We live in a country known for its racialistic attitudes-- only now, things have been reversed--we should live out our God given purpose for being on this earth-- to love and help one another.

Thanks so much for the feedback. I am new to this site as well as poetry writtings. I did my first open mic at a coffee shop and people really liked my poems. I don't think nothing of them but people like you keep giving me courage that maybe I am okay at writting :) Also, thanks for the welcoming :)
