Judgement
Don’t judge because they look dirty
Are strange and don’t seem to care
Don’t judge because they have no direction
And live in the “Land of Nowhere”
Don’t judge because they scare you
Or don’t respond as you may do
Don’t judge because they are different
Are not the same as you
We all have our own story
For some written in a horror book
Never having a childhood
As their innocence it took
In this vast ocean of life
Many struggle to guide their boat
To escape is to survive
Just to keep afloat
Stuck in deep dark murky water
Being dragged under struggling to swim
Desperately looking for that distant lighthouse
Hoping it will guide them in
So next time you make a judgement
One of disgust ,disdain or fury
Just stop ,take a moment and consider
Who made you Judge and Jury ?
