Don't judge a book by it's cover

 

Not all emo's are suicidal.

Not all black people steal cars.

W****s aren’t the only ones with STD's

Not all celebrities are 'perfect'

When someone smiles doesn't mean they're happy.

When he says he'll call he probably won't.

Just cos he dresses well doesn't mean he's gay.

That guy with his boxers showing doesn't make him gangster.

Just because i wear Black doesn't make me gothic.

Not all religious folk are going to damn you to hell.

Don't judge a book by it's cover,

Don't base a candy by it's outer case.

Don't make stupid assumptions.

Cos I guarantee, you wouldn't like what people thought of you.

You said it all right there in your last line
"Cos I guarantee, you wouldn't like what people thought of you." If only it was that easy to get the point across to others...I like how you chose your words within this very "in the face" concept...no give there..no wishy-washy meakness...strong statements and given with a great deal of respect as well for others..shows that you have an open mind while writing..(just saying as reguard to others feelings there) Bravo for you...very nice!!! Thank you for the RR :)

How very true!! What a wonderful poem. I wish all the people who have ever judged me for anything could read this. This should be published in every book, magazine, and internet page!! Awesome!! Good for you. :)

This is brilliant, it made me want to get a pen and see how many things i judge, this is a great write for making us look again, and reconsider our presumptions and assumptions. loved it.
Have a nice time while you are away. See you on the 21st. Bye for now. Trish.

I soooo agree!!! This can also be applied to someone's personality...Just because a person is beautiful/handsome, it doesn't mean that he/she is a great person...It's not about the looks! I love this poem!
It speaks so much honesty! Well done!

This is deep and it really makes you think about some of the sterotypes people put out there. I like to think that everyone has a differnet way of coping with things going on in their life. Each person is their own but because someone is more different then most you hate. I liked this alot. 100 percent rating from me
