Dont Judge My Cover

Don't Judge My cover; for this cover, it is not mine I was given this cover for a short period of time It started a perfect canvas on the day that I was born Now even the edges of my pages are all worn out and torn A few pages are missing never to be read again I wished one day you open and read what's deep within Read the pages slowly you can not go back in time For someday you'll regret it if you don't look deep inside You'll open me and read me then put me down again Don't drop any pages for then my story ends Just close me up and put me back Then pick me up again Please continue to tell my story Maybe even share me with a friend. I know my story is boring You might lose interest fast But I promise you will finally understand All the pain I had in years past Even if you choose to put me down again At least I'll know one person might finally understand See no one has ever read me completely front to back They don't know all the things I hide as they all choose to put me back Ive laid upon this bookshelf Dreaming of things yet to come Yet no one seems to want to read A book as torn up as this one.

Aubrie, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) HAPPY HOLIDAYS. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
