Fed Up II

I don't speak for her
but there's that look again
she's fed up with everyone
can you blame her
do you know how many times 
she's heard the same story
from different characters
with the same agenda  
this is why it's hard for her to trust
and take anyone seriously
she also remembers when 
people weren't so easily offended 
by things like who you voted for
or social media in general
all that really mattered
was what was in your heart
having that connection
and putting actions to words
things you build a foundation on
but people are exhausting
whether you show love
or a moment of indifference
you're met with hate and
accusations of lacking humanity
why do we always assume 
the worst in one another
it's disappointing for sure 
still she remains hopeful
but she won't hold her breath
waiting for others to see her light
