don't judge a book by it's cover.

The butterflies oft fly away;
the hornets only sting when cornered.
The perfect girl is a b***h;
the emo girl has the kindest heart.
The child knows more about love,
than the adult will ever understand.
The one who plays in their garage,
sings wiser words than the one on the stage
in front of millions.
And a knife driven into the heart
accomplishes more than one
driven into the wrist.
And the eyes that are blind
have seen too much more
than the eyes
of the schoolgirl.
And it is the one who is labeled
that sees
past the labels.

echo a thousand times, you hit the mark with this one, the stereotypes and labels of the everyday are not at all true and probably created by those who are ignorant of the truth, we always have to look a little deeper and find out who the person is underneath. I love that your voice is innocent, wise and perceptive at the same time, you are a unique spirit.
