Inability



I can't see a you.
I've lost this ability.
Little sparkles of light
Is all I see of you.

So, please forgive,
Forgive my inability
To see a you.

Dancing and playing,
Shadowing themselves,
Little sparkles of light
Are blinding me.

So, please forgive,
Forgive my inability
To see a you.

I'm blinded by the light
My own ligh.
I'm blinded by the acknowledgement of the self..
My own self.

So, please forgive,
Forgive my inability
To see a you.

Don't you want to be blind,
Blinded by your own light?
If not, at least forgive,
Please forgive my inability.

I is better now without him. Me was anxious, scared and had a lot of wishes and opinions about everything. Now, that Me is gone, I has discovered a peace that it didn't know it existed. more…
