~Within My Heart~

Look deep inside my heart,
and tell me what you see.
You will see beauty,
cause thats whats deep inside me.
Its not my looks,
or the way I dress.
Its the way I was created,
like all the rest.
So before you judge someone,
on the way they are,
Look into their hearts,
and you will find a shining star.

People leave our lives as quickly as they come, but the ones that mean something leave footprints in our hearts.

Beautiful poem Erin.
Well put. To many of us, including myself, make unjustified judgements of ppl based on appearance.
Thanks for sharing this poem

Thanks for the reply Isgona. I know what you mean. Alot of us make judgements on the way people look instead of learning about them first.

Erin,
Really awesome poem. We all do this every once in a while and it is a terrible thing to do. If we could all act this way things would be great. Very cool message!

great insight. these connotations are really wearing people thin, which shouldnt be happening.

I really liked this poem and i also think its very true. I wish people didnt always focus on looks and everything but rather on the persons personality and whats inside of them. That is what is most important. Great poem..i really liked this one.

You have a heart of gold and have a way to put smiles in people's faces

Excellent message!! I'm sure it's something everyone can relate to, whether they are the ones judging or being judged. Great job with this!
