Fear no longer


He had not one inch of an attractive feature

Ignored by all he, a voiceless creature

Felt cursed by his creator, his one “teacher”

He had not one inch of an attractive feature

 

Two fingers could barely sustain, clinging to life

And he’s the only independent to that knife    

He, no control, constantly repelled his wife

Two fingers could barely sustain, clinging to life

 

He had a crowd chanting his name

The type society desired, fame

They, children, innocent to the game

He had a crowd chanting his name

 

Very soon he shrunk lonely

But all his fear laid aside,

There, ahead his one and only

Such all fears, they quickly died

 

Being together wasn't wronger

NOW Prejudice lived no longer.
