Acceptance

Folder: 
2000

Kind of faces that captivate

You want to see more

Than just their eyes

The windows

To much more

Their souls and beauty

Their hopes and fears

What makes them angry

Or hurt

Or cry

You can accept

Flaws

And perfection

Evryone has both

You can judge

But it's worng

You can follow the leader

Or stand on your own

And trample down stone barriers

Like castles of sand

You can reach out

And hug

That person inside

The little girl wandering

With tears in her eyes

You can ignore the people

That bring others down

And hold you back

Who smile with frowns

Don't fall into unity

And beauty will show

Uniqueness of spirit

Will allow you to grow

Author's Notes/Comments: 

You shouldn't ever feel the need to prejudice against a soul just because it seems to be the popular action. Break barriers. Set an example. You'll be proud of you.
