Even Now,

Why can’t you see how lucky you are?

How we can discover each other,

Find a light we never dreamed existed

Why can’t you believe in my words and promises

And gaze on the image of a brighter future?

Oh you know how it is,

Another you came along once, shining and uninvited,

Shattered the rose colored glass I used to look at life through

And now nothing’s to be trusted

Because everything’s distorted

No matter how logical

No matter how bright or innocent until proven guilty

Regardless of my feelings and of yours

I can’t unsee

What you are blind to

Even now.
