Why?

I was bored and came up with this…It may not make sense...But I have a cold and my head ain't working properly…Hope you like it.
Why do you choose to discriminate,
When there is no reason to hate,
Everyone is unique,
Why is it popularity you seek?
Is it because of pleasure?
Or is it because of pain?

You hurt others to gain confidence,
You have to learn the balance,
Between pleasure and pain,
Or all you gain,
Is a room full of fake friends,
Or no one around to help you up when you fall.

Next time you pass that girl in the hall,
Smile
Next time you see the boy with the glasses,
Wave
They are no different to you or me
You will get far in life if you learn that now.
