My Question an Honest Reflection
I wonder: if we omit details—
no one asks nor shares—
do they change our opinions?
Years pass by and I spot an attraction
in people I've overlooked for beauty.
What in my mind creates this shift?
Love runs deeper than the surface of beauty.
Do minds rest cryogenically—waiting till we grow?
My opposite holds my attraction, but...
Now, I see beauty in transition.
They're not and yet are similar, but opposite.
May the fact of birth change my opinion?
May I be shallow if the truth rises and I reject?
May I accept what stands as evident iny bigotry?
Or may I not give a damn and be happy with progress?
