Never be so quick to judge someone without knowing their story.

Sometimes you just meet people, it doesn't always make sense;

maybe sent to make you happy or a little less tense.
Either way these people come into our lives I know,

to teach us more about ourselves, more that we should know.
These people could be good, these people could be bad;

these people could teach us lessons that we probably never had.
We can take it how we want, we can choose to hang around;

we can choose to answer with words or not even make a sound.
Everyone we meet knows something that we don't.

Some choose to listen while others just won't.
People seem too different, but one way they do appear,

 are to show us so much life, to make things crystal clear.
If you ever meet someone, who at first you don't accept,

think long down the road, could you live with that regret?
Never be so sure, to let one person go,

 because life has a funny way of showing us, what we all must know.

This one is fantastic. The poem looks simple but carries a very good message. My favorite lines are :
"If you ever meet someone, who at first you don't accept,
think long down the road, could you live with that regret?
Never be so sure, to let one person go,
because life has a funny way of showing us, what we all must know."
I was thinking about the same thing the other day. Unfortunately, some things in life just don't work out. And yes, we will have to live with that regret. :)
