Do you know how it feels
when people call you out for being fat?
Shaming you for not fitting in the same size as they are
Joking around with how you look as if you don't get hurt.

Do you know how it feels
when people silently judge you for being a different color?
Whispering about how you are not the same hue as they are
Ostracizing you because of the skin that you didn't choose

Do you know how it feels
when people look down on you for being poor?
Ordering you around because you are not on the same level as they are
Mistreating you because they think money is all that matters

Do you know how it feels
when people judge you for being a different gender?
Oppressing you for not being normal as they are
Discriminating you for choosing to be yourself

Do you know how it feels
when people look at you disgustingly for being violated?
Saying you're impure for not being as modest as they are
Blaming you for experiencing something that you didn't want.

Do you know how it feels
when you look down on yourself for being not good enough?
Trying your best but you still fall back down
Molding yourself to be someone people will love and society will accept

Do you know how it feels?
For if you do, you wouldn't dare judge a person.
You wouldn't stare and talk behind their backs.
You wouldn't question their actions.
If you walk in the same shoes, you would know how it feels-
To be shamed, ostracized, judged, mistreated, oppressed, and discriminated.

Everyone has once been hurt before,
but do you truly know how it feels?
