Why
Why does anything happen?
Why does everything happen?
Why do people get judged for who they are?
Why are the colors thrown against cars?
Why do we shoot our own kind?
Why do we hate everyone we find?
Why are women treated less?
Why are we forced to cook and look pretty in a dress?
Why do we judge for the gender we love?
Why does it matter what God we believe lies above?
Why are men superior to all?
Why do they always get to make the final call?
Why are we not treated all the same?
Why are we treated as differently as the sun and the rain?
Why do I look at myself and feel ashamed ?
Why should anyone care what I look like ,
And why am I always blamed?
Why should anyone ever be called fat?
Why should you be the reason someone has the selfisteam of a rat?
But we all know this world will never change,
So take a second and pause,.
And think,
Are you the cause?
