A life. Not seeing the world. But feeling the world.
I may not have traveled the seven seas
Nor have I gone around the world.
But I know what it's like

To feel.
To love.
To hurt.
To sympathize.
To empathize.
To believe.
Emotion.

And though I still haven't walked
The rues of Paris
Or danced through
The streets of Barcelona
I've felt how so many others have felt.
I can say that I have experienced
What it's like

To feel true emotion.
To feel so raw yet so right.

And I would rather be able
To feel the hurt in the oppressed eyes
To love the soul that longs to be free
To hurt with those who live in fear.
To sympathize with those who've lost someone close.
To empathize with those who still are searching
And to believe that there is a way through it all

Than see the world from the aesthetic oppressor's view where everything is right.
