careless
As I sit and look at you
Pretending to listen but actually thinking
About how much you dont give a fu**k
You speak but it has no meaning
You smile but its a facade
Your smile, your words, they show just how much
You know. how much you just dont care.
About my people:
their struggles, their pain, their suffering.
But you sit, satisfied, happy and ignorant.
I cant tell you how much i want, no i NEED to let you know, to let the world know about the hunger, the diseases, the pain and the eyes of the children. the children of the world.
You teach about geography and the geometry of the world. but you dont teach about compassion or help. you dont think about, talkless of , mention the need to become selfless.
You spend your days mindlessly rattling on about your degree subject yet you dont care about the subject that matters most to the studentsyou judge so much.
You judge us by our colour and what you expect us to be.
Yet you b**ch and moan when we become that stereotype. how can you be angry when you and millions of otherslike you cannot look outside your comfort zone and see the reality the rest of us live in.
How can we rise above the statistics when we have no support or help. How can we care for our community when we are not taught to do so.
I NEED to say shame on you.
I NEED to tell you to remove the dirt from your eyes before you can counsel me to remove the one in my eyes.
I NEED to tell you to open your eyes and see the world as it is and not in the sheltered cove you reside in.
I NEED you and the world to realize that we are all citizens of the world.
Until you and many others become aware of that, your carelessness and ignorance will continue to devastate and deteriorate the world we live in.
I NEED to be heard!!!!
