Do you know what needs to stop?

People being killed for their sexuality and how they identify as,

Do you know what needs to stop?

Rape, molestation and abuse

Do you know what needs to stop?

Racism and Homophobia

Do you know what needs to stop?

Having a misogynist,homophobic, part nazi asshole running a fucking country

Do you know what needs to fucking stop?

People not talking about topics because they are “uncomfortable”

Do you know why is it “uncomfortable”?

It's because people don't talk about it

Do you know what needs to stop?

Censorship

Wanna know why?

Cuz it makes the world a shittier place,

Because it stops people from expressing views,

Things that are not ‘socially acceptable’ to talk about

Do you know what needs to stop immediately?

Suicide.

Teenagers, or even adults for that matter,

Killing themselves because of constant abuse and criticism,

Because i am tired,

Tired of watching people die,

Tired of people killing themselves because of people that don't fucking have humanity,

You know what i’m tired of?

The world being the world so hypocritical,

I am tired of watching people being criticized for the things they choose to do

I am tired and what it to stop.

Do you know what would make sense?

Killing somebody for revenge or because of a personal vendetta,

Or even killing somebody because you are a raging fucking psychopath

But you know what is utterly senseless?

Killing somebody because of their personal choices,

What they choose to believe in, who they choose to kiss and what they choose to wear,

Things that are none of your damned business,

That is fucking senseless,

It is beyond time we change that,

Cause if we don’t,

Who will?

Cause you're going to think that the next generation is going to fix it,

Guess what? They are going to think the next generation is going to fix it,

And this a never ending, infinite loop of procrastination and not doing what's right

Because i'm here

And i want to do whats right

And this poem is not beautiful,

And it will never be beautiful

Because it is the truth,

And the truth is never beautiful,

And it may be hard for you to digest,

And it may be hard for some of you to talk about,

Because that’s what the truth is,

It is difficult,

And do you know to change this?

By doing the difficult thing,

By talking about this,
