Not To Judge Poem by Vanessa Alvarez

It's not my place to cast a stone,
Or weigh your worth when you're alone.
I'm not the one to say what's fair
I'm just a soul who's meant to care.

I'm not the voice that points and blames,
Or keeps a list of hurtful names.
I'm here to lift you when you fall,
To help you rise and stand up tall.

To heal, not to judge,
To mend what's been torn,
To comfort the broken,
To shelter the worn.
No need to decide what you "deserve"
Just love with a heart that's ready to serve.

I won't ask why your tears were shed,
Or where you've been, or what was said.
I'll simply sit and hold your hand,
And help your soul to understand.


The world may weigh, the world may test,
But kindness always does what's best.
So let me be the light you need—
A gentle touch, a quiet seed.
