Just Imagine how many people You have passed by Deeming them as unattractive But if you just gave them the time of day You would be so hopelessly in love With them Just Imagine how many people You have overlooked Just so you can focus on the "Hottest" one in the room Hoping to get their attention Without even knowing If they're a person of substance Or if they fulfill their stereotype Without even realizing That the person to your left Or right Could be the most compatible lover For your soul I wonder What would our world look like What would our interactions be like If we no longer saw beauty Skin deep The first time That we meet

An Elegy to All of the Lovers That Never Were
Just Imagine how many people You have passed by Deeming them as unattractive But if you just gave them the time of day You would be so hopelessly in love With them Just Imagine how many people You have overlooked Just so you can focus on the "Hottest" one in the room Hoping to get their attention Without even knowing If they're a person of substance Or if they fulfill their stereotype Without even realizing That the person to your left Or right Could be the most compatible lover For your soul I wonder What would our world look like What would our interactions be like If we no longer saw beauty Skin deep The first time That we meet
