If Only They Actually Cared About Us

They try to
Silence us
Take away
Our right
To be heard
Out of
Their minds
They think
They're right
They have
No idea
What they
Are doing
And I just
Want to say
I really wish
They actually
Cared about us
They try to
Threaten us
Pressure us
Try to tell us
That they know
What is good
For us
But truth is
They would
Never be
Caught dead
Living as
One of us
They don't care
That they're unfair
Their cold blank eyes
Just stare at us
Almost as if
They don't even
Notice us
Compromise
Is a must
But they don't
Even hear us
I just wish
They actually
Cared about us
