Blood flows freely
screams erupt all around
tears are rolling down our cheeks
but you pay us no attention
the eyes stare upwards
lips move in silent prayers
hand are shaking and eyes are glassy
but you never notice
the blood spilled is on your hands
the shattered hearts are your fault
yet you blame it on us
and dismiss it
How much louder do the screams need to be?
how many more tears need to fall?
How many more people need to bleed?
Until you can finally notice them?
Is this your idea
of equality, of justice?
With what face
will we all face eternal judgement?
The Muslims are the terrorists
the women and LGBT are inferior
the colored aren't your equals
so tell me, what exactly makes us inferior?
Who said that white is superior?
who said 2 billion need to suffer?
Who said that females are weak?
Who made the rules, other than you?
The enemy is us
the protector is us
the wrong are us
the right are no one.
