tell me why people cry

tell me why people get hurt

tell why people say i love you and dont mean it

tell me why people die

tell why live

tell me why people have frieds
but dont have friend

tell me why peolpe go to school

tell me why people fight for us
and lose there life

just tell me why

i wrote this when i was 7 years old when my dad best friend died in the war

This is all right for a seven year old, lol!  It's pretty good, and reflects the confusion that kids often feel that are more often than not ignored.  : ] Good write

Hi Kamo,

Wow! Some pretty heavy questions for a seven-year-old, I don’t remember what I was asking around then but definitely not questions like these. I do not know how old you are now but I think it would be neat if you rewrote this, keeping the questions, but also try to answer the questions. Maybe think of what your parents said when you asked them these (if you did) or what you’ve learned since the time this is written but of course that’s just my opinion. Thank you for sharing this piece from your life, it was interesting to try and answer the questions myself, makes a body think. I hope to read more from you soon.
