Because of when
You've been walking
For what feels like days
Weeks
Months
Years
But is actually
Hours
And you stop
And you sit
And you think.
And you think
Of aunt
And uncle
And cousins
Enjoying life
Elsewhere.
And you feel so
So
Angry.
But not at aunt
And uncle
And cousins.
Not any more.
Now you feel angry
At the fact that there are places to go.
Places where people
Aren't poor
Aren't thirsty
Aren't trekking through a dead land.
Places where people
Don't
Care.
Don't
Care
That their life
Their electricity
Their convenience
Kills
Your
Life.
Because of when
You feel even angrier
Because
There are people who do care
Do think
Do know
Do speak
Do act
But everybody else
Doesn't
Listen.
