Don't judge a book by its cover,
Everyone says.
Do they really mean it,though?
They say so, yet they do.
'
They meet someone silent,
Who really doesn't talk.
They label him as intense,
When really,he might be a terrorist.
'
They meet someone robust with energy,
Who is so enthusiastic all the time.
They label her as annoying,
When really,she might be a sweetheart.
'
They meet someone strong,with a bulky build,
Who lifts weights all the time.
They label him as a strong-hearted one,
When really,he might be the weakest of the weak.
'
They meet someone weak,who looks like a bean pole,
Who is so thin,with no curves at all.
They label her as a weak-hearted one,
When really,she might be the strongest of the strong.
'
They meet someone,who is the topper of his class
With always the highest scores.
They label him as a nerd who knows everything,
When really,he might not know what love is.
'
They meet someone, who never was a class topper,
With always the lowest scores.
They label her as a fool with no brains,
When really,she might know what it is like to be in love.
'
They meet someone,who wears emotions on his or her sleeve,
Their faces, a canvas of expressions.
They label them as someone who wants to show what they feel,
When really,they are too innocent to hide their feelings.
'
Our world,
Is a place full of double-faced people,
Who say one thing,
But thinks something else.
'
Our world,
Is a place where people are hypocrites,
Who say this and that is wrong,
But does just this and that.
'
Our world,
Is a place,
Where there is a small cubicle of people,
Who are not so biased.
