Blank Canvas


Who are you to judge?!
Where does this misperception come from?
You are unable to determine for yourself,
so you go by the ill advised misperseption of others.

We have never met,
never had a conversation.
I should be that of a blank canvas,
but your picture is already predetermined!

Now you sit and talk mindless nothings about me.
In your own narrow mind, I'm an outcast...
unfit for your world.

That's ok though...
Your world is just a bitter,
shallow, pitiful excuse of an exsistance.
A world fit for only you.

My world is that of hope,
love, understanding, and above all...acceptance
where all are welcome,
and none are judged!

M.P.D

Be yourself.  Say what you feel.  Nothing is wrong. To your own self be real!!

Wonderful meaning expressed here. I really like your writing style. The poem was well written, you sounded rightously angry but not so much that you were upset if that makes any sense at all!! Anyways Enjoyable read.

Be it in the truest form, or a desperate lack thereof, fail not to understand that the inspiration is love.

So true, some people are just so self-centered.  And they don't even know it.   This is very good.  Keep it up.

Your poem struck a chord with me. I try not to judge people, but yet, I find those around me, judging me.
