Finding beauty in negative spaces


Finding beauty in negative spaces Can be a trying test of your sanity But walking by, are a million faces Every one with a sense of vanity When tragedy strikes we always move on Songs, they are still playing, and hearts still beat But we all know night is not like the dawn Sometimes difficult to stand on two feet Now we tape the mouths and burn the flesh If ever one stands out among the rest It is forced to hide, camouflage, and mesh I thank God every day for I am blessed This is like fire, water, earth, and air So I ask you now, is it really fair?
