  • Don't Judge Me

    Don't judge me

    I am not what you see

    I know I have Birth defects

    I know I was born differant than you

    I have risen above my problems

    To show you my heart beats true

     

    Don't judge me

    For the scares upon my skin

    They do not define me

    Nor the soul that lies within

    I just want to be accepted

    I just want to be friends

     

    Don't judge me

    You have no idea what I've been through

    The surgeries

    The pain

    The heartache

    The rain

    Cuts and bruises from defending myself

    from bullies like you

    So shut your mouth

     

     

    Don't judge me

    My birth defects

    My problems

    Are just a small part of my life

    Look beyond all that

    See me through new eyes

     

    Don't judge me

    Thou I may not be

    As smart as you

    I am not dumb

    I do have a brain

    I do know how to use it

     

    Don't judge me

    Yes I have birth defects

    I am not ashamed

    I work hard to rise above

    So please stop calling me names

     

    Don't judge me

    I just want to be loved

    Is that asking to much

    To look beyound my outershell

    To see who I truly am

     

    Don't judge me

    I am human

    Not a freak
