See So Much


The bar has been set.
To show and to know.
But, what is beauty?

Is it form? Is it pleasure?
Purely aesthetics?
Or do we start to build a connection?

What we add to the beauty
What we can take from it for our own
Experience and meaning
Bringing light into our lives.

In the end, beauty is personal
As is all reality.
We will not always admit what is beautiful
Though we might very well see the same view

Some beauty is widely agreed on
But some of the beauty most dear
Is beheld through eyes allowed to
See behind it.
