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'd 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.
"If you care for someone give them always a safe
place to cry and never a reason to need it."
