Take Charge!

April 11, 2013
If I were in charge of the world The right of freedom would harmonize in all souls Liberating them from that paradoxical and hypocritical blindfold That impedes the ability to see what love holds If I were in charge of the world Distortion would be embraced Resembling those flaws that so many hate Forgetting the prettiness of a rose even when obtaining ugly thorns If I were in charge of the world Darkness would shatter with light Exchanging many desired sights While exposing the truth of its original mold If I were in charge of the world The existence of the intangible would solidify and transform Empowering the limit of the mortal If I were in charge of the world Love would define forever Accepting every defect as a miracle yet to be born If I were in charge of the world The pupil would adjust and adapt to contemplate beyond Beyond the aesthetic superficial form If I were in charge of the world The equilibrium of all differences would acclimate with just a few simple words: "We are all equally and truly BEAUTIFUL" Despite if I were in charge of the world.
