Why Is It

Why is it so hard
For Someone 
Anyone
A society
A government
A person

To understand something
A reason
A opinion
A though
A way of life

However small
A favorite color
A name
A title
A letter

However big
A revolution 
A riot
A choice
A change

Clouded by judgment
We live
We die
We change
We hide

With open eyes
We learn
We journey
We become stronger
We find ourselves
