Why do people make judgments,
You know me, and so you know I'm innocent,
So why do people make judgments about others,
When they never got to know who they are,
That part is left out,
That chance is missing,
So people choose to hate,
From simply basing it on what other people have said.
They create in their mind who that person is,
Without giving them a fair chance,
They call them freak,
What is the reason to call them those names?
What is it based on?
They never got to know who they are first,
That is an important basis,
Don't you think?
That would have showed them the doorway,
To understand others,
And why they are how they are,
Once they knew, they would understand.
That chance is blocked,
It stands in the way of a beautiful path,
A path to inspiration,
It is clouded over,
Making everything good invisible,
Missing a chance,
And that is what they have deprived themselves of.
They have missed the heart of someone unique.

Pets
Some people treat them like they are mindless,
Some give them away,
Some won't take them in, cause they don't want to care,
And sometimes after losing someone,
It is hard to love again.
Sometimes if an animal is not loved,
They won't show affection,
But as soon as someone opens their heart,
And truly loves from the soul,
That is something they know,
And then they will show affection back,
It is something unspoken,
But they are so sensitive, somehow they understand,
And it is in the unspoken that other things are understood too,
And might have the most meaning.
Maybe their love.
Maybe that is all their song is composed of,
Because every other quality they have is part of that,
It seems that is all they really want,
And to be able to truly live,
Perhaps that is why they keep coming back to people.
Once the barrier is broken,
they will continue to stay by our side,
not out of sympathy, or anything artificial,
but only with truth,
They have so much to show us,
It is so simple,
Yet when we understand it,
it is so complex,
But in the simplicity of things,
Those must be the most inspiring.
