Awakening
My indigent eyes have peered too far
For so delicate the sensibility to be obtuse
My point of view is an outstretched plea
Forgetting where I am standing
Some awakening is needed to consecrate
My perspective to be found
Allowing my insight to bridge the compass
For my vision to navigate the stars fate
On the road taken too much in turning
My delirium seems the gift that enslaves
Not finding my misplaced self
To be lost is too egregious to mediate
For I must learn who I am to be here
