It isn't that Life is unfair, / it is those who are privileged / with it who are unjust. / / And sometimes you just / gotta pick yourself up cause no one / else will give you a hand. / / And in dark times, / just have enough courage to / pull through the day, / / Do that, / and before you know it, / things will get better. / / Have the courage / to keep going / despite all odds... / / ... for Life is a / precious thing.
I almost laughed in hateful mirth, when I saw your shoulders tremble in fear. Because we both knew you had every reason to fear me.

Until I realized that beasts are more dangerous when afraid.

You're an adult?
You're family?
You're wealthy?
You're famous?
You're smart?
You're poor?
You're insecure?
You're athletic?
You--?
You expect my automatic respect?
No.
**** you.*
You don't get my respect.
You earn it.
I don't care who you are or what your problems are,
you don't disrespect me and then expect me to
say nothing and just respect you because
of your status or state.

This is the year in which
no one can speak their opinion
without being singled out or hated on.
This is the year in which
racial tension has increased tenfold
- a raw and pure discrimination.
This is the year in which
anyone who tries to help another
they are looked upon with criticism.
This is the year in which
two different generations clash
- hate and rage spreading everywhere.
This is the year in which
media brings death and pain into our screens
and makes the world seem like such a horrible place.
This is the year in which
no political candidate seems adequate enough
to satisfy the angry People.
This is the year in which
I fear that I'll look back upon when I'm older and
think, "It was a huge mess, that started an even bigger mess."

I saw a video of a man stabbing another man
with a knife multiple times; the scene was gruesome
and I felt sick to my stomach - I watched
as the victim struggled (I lost count of
how many times he was stabbed, all I could see
was the blood on the floor and his flailing limbs).
I read newspaper articles about the deaths
of colored people by the hands of our untrained law
and I read how both sides are growing in hate -
"he should've kept his hands up!" or "it's because I'm black!"
I tried to be one of the people who pushes for peace,
stating that All Lives Matter, only to be cursed out
and humiliated - "saying All Lives Matter is a bunch of bull!"
or "you're stupid!" or "you're useless!"

This is 2016 and it's full of more crap
than any other year of my entire life.
It seems to me that as time passes, our society
and morals just deteriorate more and more.

We move by strings tied to
our beings, like marionettes.
They want us to smile and be happy
so we do just that; we appease our audience.
But behind the curtains we are angry and sad,
hurt and regretful, tired and disregarding.
We don't love each other like we used to.
We act like a real couple in front of
everyone because that's what they expect.
And you know what?
That's what makes us perfect.
We're people-pleasers, we do what people
want us to do, no matter the cost.
So keep staying with me my love,
we'll grow our hate towards each other...
...together.

He started as "him."
He then became "you."
He then ended as "him."
