You See?

Foreword: I wrote this piece about those who seem to discard others once their purpose has been served. And how this can affect the emotions of the discarded.

It would be nice for me

If only you could see

To show some sensitivity

Rather than discarding me..

It's not that I don't see

How you pick and choose to be

My friend when it suits maybe?

If only you opened your eyes to see..

I know it sounds crazy

To hear this plea from me

Just know it doesn't sit easily

To beg and plead for me..

There's waves of doubt in me

Which to some is pure stupidity

That I think you don't see

But you're not me you see..

I believe my own self inflicted bad press you see

Which to some is understandably

Not a positive way to be

But walk in my shoes and see, how exactly you would be?

It's a chapter in time for me

To ascend this mountain peak

Overcome the summit and see

The path you've set for me..

Although confidence has slipped from me

I know there's a faith inside of me

You haven't left or forsaken me

I'm just temporarily blind, can't see..

The light again will shine on me

Piercing me ever so bright you see

So I am free

Destroy my darkness and be.
