We live in a society
That romanticises violence and war.
And in this society,
We constantly beg for more.

We live in a society
That demonises sensitivity.
And in this society,
We turn indifference to an activity.

We live in a world
That tolerates hatred;
And we laugh at those
Who are visibly aching.

And in this cruel world,
I have found myself conflicted.
Is our hatred learned behaviour
Or is it simply an affliction?
