Can I capture an essence of those things around me,
make them good to me,
make them beauty?

Could I dissolve where pain and hurt hit,
where aches tended to be,
make myself empathy?

Could I immerse in murky waters,
all salty brine to any reception,
only to make beautiful perception?

Am I touched by the tenderness of those I've known,
ones I'll come to know,
enough to have beauty show?

Can I melt hatred,
ease suffering of ridicule and betrayal,
calm emotion incensed,
make space to allow beauty's presence?

Can I grasp loyalty as an honour,
show others what is now felt,
perhaps ever widening,
with beauty replace the pelt?
