Labeled

by Hope   Oct 13, 2007


Judged by first impression,
Our worth has been decided,
Still tumbling from the oppression,
We all are divided.

Given names we cannot run away from,
Remembering rules we must follow,
Being treated worse than scum,
Why does the world have to be so shallow?

Being different than another one,
Whom sticker isn’t the same,
Treated better or worse than some,
No one will look past the name.

    It's so true, but we are only human. People judge it is what everyone has grown up to do. We make fun of people in our heads and some just choose to do it out loud. I do it, you probably do it...and really it sucks. This explains that. :]
