If The World
Were Blind
-----------------------------------------------
If the world
was blind,
maybe then we'd see
the true side of beauty,
deep within you and me.
-----------------------------------------------
No one
could judge us
by our outer looks,
like the fancy covers
on expensive books.
-----------------------------------------------
We'd see
with our hearts,
and not just our eyes,
and what we discover
might be a surprise.
-----------------------------------------------
There would be
no need
to try to impress,
with the way we look,
or the way that we dress.
-----------------------------------------------
The only thing
that would matter
is the way we would feel,
not phoney or cheap,
but truthful and real.
