When was it that life became a contest?

When was it that we all decided that we had to be better than everyone else we knew?

When was it that being ourselves was declared not good enough?

When was it that we all started wanting more instead of being grateful?

When was it that we all started thinking that being loved for someone we aren't is better than letting our true self shine through?

When was it that everyone lost their compassion for others?

When was it that we decided it was okay not to care?

When was it that causing ireparable pain to the ones we care about most became acceptable?

When was it that we forgot that we are supposed to support each other through the darkest hours?

When was it that breaking you lovers' heart on purpose became a normal part of relationships?

When are we going to realize that we are perfect just the way we are and don't have to change for anyone?

When are we going to learn to be there for each other instead of being backstabbers?

When will we begin to be the change that we want to see in others?
