it's not okay

how does one see another?
a human? 
entitled to their own thoughts
and rights of life

don't you find it impossible
to sit still and stay quiet
does it not press on your chest
when you don't say a word

how does one hurt another?
a person, 
who means the world to another
and is someone's mother

is it not a matter 
of extreme importance
when humans start to harm each other
and the higher power does not bother?

how do you
stand tall and strong
unfazed by the disgusts that go on
in the world your loved ones live in

its not okay
to be okay
when humanity is falling apart
when all faith is lost
