The Rejected

Those whom you have rejected
Are the most beautiful
It has not been easy
But in their pain
They have SEEN life
Seen her for what she is
There is no ugly, and no beauty
There is simply life
I am here, and you are here
The mother manifests life
In myriad different ways
There is LIFE all around us
So let me look into your eyes
Let us sit and talk
I want to touch you. 
I need you.
For in the mirror of your eyes
I see my own soul
We are not ugly
And we are not beautiful
We are simply ALIVE
As we truly are
I thank you for the gift that you are
Only in truly seeing the other
Can we ever really know ourselves
