Judging the Judgement

JUDGING THE JUDGEMENT
...........THE ANSWER I OWE  

If I were a fish ,
would you be my ocean ?
If I were the ocean ,
would you bring in life ?
or , would you drain me out ?
If I  were a lion , 
would you be my forest ?
If I were the forest , 
would you be my trees ?
or , would you burn me down?
If I were a butterfly ,
would you let me fly ?
or , if I were fly  ,
would you take my life ?
If I had a form  ,
would be my heart  ?
If I had a heart  ,
would you be my soul?
or , would you dig out a hole ?
If I were a boy  ,
would you buy me cars ?
If I were a girl ,
would you buy me dolls ?
or  ,If  I  were a boy but a girl at  heart
would buy me dolls riding cars ?
either say yes or say no ;
you don’t know me if you say yes.
You still don’t know me if say no .
So , if you don’t know me , then don’t  you  dare  judge me.

kshithija bhat , 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 :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
