People?

Makayla H 2006 (Coats)



People act like it's okay to talk crap

about people when they're right there

and can hear them even when they

Haven't done anything but be their self.

It makes no sense at all, People are so two-faced

they act all nice around some people, but then

their whole attitude changes around others

Why does that happen?

I have no clue, but I wish I knew, so I could somehow

help the ones they treat like that

If everyone stopped being so two-faced we

would all be fine... but people have learned

to use words as a "weapon" but if we used

words to help with those "weapons" being

thrown at us, we would be a lot better in

This world.

But people don't care unless it benefits themselves.

It's sad, but very true.

Sadly...

It needs to be stopped. But it's going to take years... Sadly...
