The World we Live in
A touchy poem by my closest friend Motubatse M.R
The World We Live In
We lie in the world that says drink and every wrong thing you do will be blamed on your alcoholism. In a world that asked an abused child why didn’t you run away when he was about to hit you? In a world that says the police station is not an answer yet the same world sits and watches you suffer all time. This is a world that says a man can have 20 cases of domestic violence and still get bail on the 21st case. A world were when the police are called, they have the ability to tell you that they are busy and can’t help you at the moment. So tell me this level of ignorance in people, what am I supposed to do? Should I die before I am taken seriously? I choose my right to live.
