What do you step over

Walking with our minds
And empty souls?
Calculating  theories, numbers
Displayed in  religion?
Form long a go

We see
When things are clear
Faust distinction   
Is the way of fear
Instincts gives us light
Some would say 
Breath , laugh and enjoy
Just live your life

If black-is-black 
To live it will need white
As they coexist
They still maintain
Every bit of  pride

How much would it cost
To be a better person inside.
Is this price to much to pay
Would this cause you
To rethink whom
 You are every day?

Question
Can you really turn your head
Continue to walk away
If your soul
Puts forth a question
What price will you pay?

What do you step over RE

Hey DOA so their is some fire UH [ smile smile ] OK I see UR point but to me [only] I try to practice unconditional love no matter what or whom I do believe it might be a little unfair to the world if we as U said [who think black and white (or straight) as they seem to have very little creativity . And how uncolored would life be if we were all just a lighter or darker shade of gray . even the straight & the people with very little creativity might write the great's poem one day how will we know unless we give them a chance OK LOVE TO ALL PRESS
