Why?

Why do we hurt others?

Is it because we've been hurt so many times?

Or because we want them to feel what we feel?

The anger that builds up inside us,

Is it there because we don't let it out?

Or because it has no where to go?

Why does it give people pleasures when others pain?

Do we choose what we want?

Is this all just a game?

I like to keep it inside,

Turning me mad and weak.

What do you do with your hurt?

Is it something you seek?

Fine, hurt others the way you hurt yourself.

But when everyone is full of pain and anger,

There will be no one to ask for help.
