Sometimes
All anyone wants
Is to be understood.
Sometimes
All someone wants
Is to feel like they aren't alone.
Sometimes
All someone wants
Is to fit in.
Sometimes
All someone wants
Is to feel good about themselves.
But you don't help them
When you push them around.
You don't help them
When you call them names like useless and ugly.
You don't help them
When you throw their tray on them.
I know that you're hurting too
But that doesn't give you the right to
Inflict your pain onto them.
They didn't cause you this pain.
But you didn't either.
It's like we are in a never ending cycle of pain.
When we hurt,
It's like a domino effect
And we push others down with us.
But that's not okay.
We all just need to
pull our head out of our asses
And TREAT PEOPLE THE WAY WE WANT TO BE TREATED
maybe that will stop this dumbass cycle
Of dreaded
Unnecessary pain.
Because
Sometimes
All we want
Is to stop hurting.
