Don'T Judge Me

Who are you to judge me, 
you have never walked in my shoes, 
all though everything I try,
I seem to always lose.

Who are you to judge me,
Just watch how far I will go,
Who are you to judge me,
and criticize what you don't know.

Who are you to judge me,
about what you will never understand,
Who are you to judge me,
When you don't know who I am.

Who are you to judge me, 
I have feelings just like you,
My life is filled with so much pain,
I don't know what to do.

"Don't judge anyone lest you, too, be judged"... you're quite right Colleen! People have enough on their plate, with out others having to add to it by scorning and judging. Well penned!
