This poem could of been writen better i have to admit but i started writing it sevral days ago and no matter how hard or how hard i didnt try to look for the words they never came so its what i have come up with.

And the title also is a work in prgress


You laugh at me because of my weight
You laugh at my height as well
You laugh at how I write or talk
You even laugh at how I walk

You never stop to realize how it would affect me
You never give a bit of consideration to how I would feel
You think that I am different
You think that we arent the same
Yet we are both living on this earth
We are both playing this same game

You may laugh at how fat I am
You may laugh at how tall I am
You may laugh at how I talk or write
Or walk while passing by your sight

But there is one thing that you dont know
There is one thing that you may never get
I am also laughing at you
Because you are no where as perfect as you think

I laugh because of how YOU write,
I laugh at how YOU talk
I laugh at how YOU walk
But I dont say anything out loud
Im not that cruel

So if you care to judge me
Please reconsider the thought
Because in the end its you who will see
That Im the same as you, you see?

We are both human
We both have feelings too
We both have a heart that can get broken
Red blood is what flows in me and you

I dont care what you think of me
But never talk behind my back
I know that you would hate if I did that to you
So please have a heart and consideration that you sometimes seem to lack

Nice concepts. No one is perfect.

The only way some can feel okay about themselves and feel superior is to put down someone else or their endeavors.

Best to give love and acceptance where we can, I do believe it comes to us.

Hugs, Pat
