A New Pair of Glasses

Beginning to Focus.
Focus on my life, my step, my next stride.
Focus on myself, my goals and my pride.
Look closer at my love, how I give it and who will receive.
Look closer at my enemies, destroy their strength to deceive.
Re-learn to see and hear, develop a new sense.
Re- learn to trust myself, depend on my conscience.
As time begins to pass , as I inquire these new traits.
Life has re-opened my eyes and shown me a new fait.
A process through pain, Loneliness and Blue.
A necessary process, I now appreciate you.
While the equations began, I couldn't do the math.
I'd let this burn too long, without division of our ash.
An unsettling extinguish, Persevered in dark.
You've reignited me darling, re-set fire to my heart.
