Blind to beauty

The true concept of beauty

Is governed by the mind

Filtered through the eye

In a split second of time

We know when something is beautiful

And it happens in a single heartbeat

It stops you in your tracks as you absorb it in

But many lose this sight for they are distracted by many things

I have to say I grieve for them

Because they don’t what they’re missing

A life where beauty passes you by without being noticed

Is no life to me at all

And you may as well be actually dead

I see no reason being here

If you become so easily and unbelievably distracted

From creations beauties.
