They Judge Me Poem by Temperance Joy

They judge me.
Watch me as I walk
Eavesdropp as I talk.
They hear it and they gossip
About all the things I say.
I've given them no reason
But still,
They judge me.

They judge me
Watch me with their evil eyes
Glaring and burning through my safe disguise.
Nothing will change them or what they say.
Their thoughts don't effect me I wash them away.
Their dislike and dissapproval doesn't sink it.
Their words and their rumors may be gone with the wind.
But still,
They will judge me.

Those people who judge me don't see who i am
Not one of them out there calls me a friend.
Nothing can stop them from judging away.
It's up to me to ignore what they say
No matter the reason no matter the 'why'
Not one of them can force me to cry.
Nothing they say can sink in and hurt me.
They never get past it; they'll never see.
But still,
They judge me.
