Like Looks Dislike Poem by Freeyad Ibrahim

You say you like them,
but you do as if
you dislike them.

You like flowers,
but you cut them.

You like animals,
but you eat them.

You like trees,
But you saw them.

You like fruits,
But you pluck them.

You like birds,
But you shoot them.

You like bees,
But you steal them.

You like songbirds,
But you cage them.

You tell me you like me,
Now I'm afraid of You,
like Them!
