Why do you throw these words at me?
Labels you don't understand
You refuse to see the person underneath
No one is one dimensional.

Why do you throw these words at us?
Labels you don't understand
You refuse to see the person underneath
No one is one dimensional

Unconventional

Weird
Not normal

No, not different.
UNIQUE
Each person unique, no one the same
Your view of black and white is lame
These labels you don't understand
Your viewpoints need to expand
There's good and bad in everyone
Embrace it all and we've finally won

- Comment from author about the poem: This is really an issue today. Our "Labels" do not define who we are We do. Probably not my best work but I hope I got the meaning across. Enjoy!

You got your point across I love it and it's so true we are labeled every day not knowing who that person is underneath that person is on the inside but that's life and we all have to face it but don't mean we have to accept it
THANKS FOR CARING AZURA ! We all do it ~ and we all get it back. Of course with Mobiles ~ Facebook ~ Twitter ~ Snapchat etc it is much worse now ! NAME CALLING (Character Assassination) is endemic. In te Uk we have an old saying "Sticks & Stones may break my bones but NAMES will never hurt me. hat is what I have always done and tried NOT to retaliate ~ OK ~ HUGS BRIAN
