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.
