Foolish
I search your eyes for who I am
Who I have become
As if I can’t find meaning in
My own reflection
I listen for what you call me
Who I am to be
As if what you see matters more
Then what I’m meant to see
I ask you to love me
Like I want to love myself
Foolish I am to ask you for
What shouldn’t lie anywhere else
