Treat me Like an Equal

I am human like you

isn't that true?

yet you treat me badly

and say things so sadly

that I feel as if

I were nothing at all

 

I've never asked for much

through me many years here

never asked for love

or for one to be sincere

but now I want it to change

for I'm sure that you all can see

all I really want

besides the love I now search for

is to be treated fairly

 

so I'll ask you again,

if you don't mind

I don't want to cause you pain

or waste any of your time

 

you've said it yourself

I'm different

is it because I eat

or because I cry

or because when I was younger

I wanted to die

 

is it because I try

to be like everyone else

or is it because

I'm always jealous

 

is it because I wish

maybe too much

that for once in my life

I'd have someone to love

 

it is because I'm different

not someone who is like the world

I am my own person

my own type of girl

 

yet we like the same things

and we have the same friends

so why when I want something

equality ends

 

I'm not asking for money

not asking for life to be sublime

just asking for the simpleness

of being treated equal all the time

Changes

I feel better about myself yes...

I feel confused though.

As good as I feel

The less I know

 

Times are changing

That we all can see

And most of all the changes

are all happening to me

 

So here I am wondering

Why did this all happen to me?

Why are these changes

Only things I can see

 

So some friends hate other friends

and some friends look for comfort

other friends talk of computers

and some talk of Voldermort*

 

So I am working on a change

As much as I can do

But I am only one person

who cannot do the work as two

 

So I'm working on a new me

To stay away from dangers

Little to be upset

From all of these changes
