Don'T Judge Book By Its Cover

Let me start by saying looks can be deceiving
By the person that’s receiving
And transmitting the image to the brain to create a perfect picture
Judging before you look
Failing to see pass the skin deep within
Where her beauty lies therein
You not willing to go on a journey and discover the unwritten
Memories left behind in a safe
And you’re the combination to her heart 
The flame before its start
The light before the dark 
Emotions wrapped in life
Calling it immortal love from above
Your heart now complete
But you face defeat
Because you judged before you look 
Deep in guilt for the wrong road you took 
And that moment made you realize 
That your decision was reversible
And karma says your next.

-Much Love-
Richard Corbett
