Poem 4

Untitled

I fail to understand the plan,

the plan that separates the people once again,

from love to hate,

others fail to appreciate,

who said we had to be the same,

when a world without diversity would be a shame,

I chase individuality reaching beyond this plane,

then look around with my spiritual eye n feel pain,

she feels shame cause she's extra curvy,

because she listens to the words of the unworthy,

so does her friend that's thin,

many being cast out by society once again,

broad walls of color,

still cause separation that make me shudder,

I fall in my bed from the words that he said she said,

I fall from the wall of he did she did.
