I Am Also

You can kill me, 
Or I can kill you.
What is difference between you and me?
You are educated and I am n’t.

You can rob me, 
Or I can rob you, 
What is difference between you and me?
You are intelligent and I am foolish.

You can exploit me,
Or I can exploit you,
What is difference between you and me?
You are religious or I am not.

You can abuse me, 
Or I can abuse you,
What is difference between you and me?
You are advanced or I am not.

You can hate me, 
Or I can hate you,
What is difference between you and me?
You are non cooperative and I am also.

If you love me,
I shall also love you,
There is no difference between you and me?
You want to live and I am also.
