Blurred Vision
what now is truly possible in my life
after the impossible shows her true colours
to lose sight of you and your magic lens
so shortly after you have come into view
i cannot feel your aura anymore
my pain within has taken me to my knees
my eyes cannot see and i can barely breath
begging you please just turn around
i cannot feel my heart or soul
this wound cuts to deep to the marrow
your legacy is a scar that will never heal
the pain will never cease
i have tried to find the words
to be allowed a gentle surrender
to find a way beyond
the reach of the memory of you
an impossibility to be sure
lost footsteps searching to find
a mia culpa retreat sans honour
yearning to find a solitary empty space
far and away…out of focus
to let my broken soul
mend within the eye of the storm
