No Title, Yet - 68

We’re told from an early age not to judge someone.
At least, not ‘til we’ve walked a mile in their shoes.
But judging someone is something that we’ve all done
It’s part of being human, not something we choose.

Usually, it’s the little things that we judge
Like someone’s hair or the style of clothes they’re wearing.
But, the biggest problem is when our thoughts won’t budge
Though that person may be someone who’s quite caring.

No one wants to be judged for what they have not done
Just because they happen to look like another.
Being seen for who you are is second to none.
Being loved for who you are is like no other.
