Colourblind


from the ABC set Thoughts and Whispers.

In this world
This haven of diversity
I am colourblind

I see not the skin
The creed
The culture
But the person
The soul that lies beyond

Good
Bad
nonchalant

Each face, different
Each life, it's own unique river
Forging it's own path through this world

Some I will love
Some I will hate
Some I will never know

But I am colourblind
It's the person within that I see.
