I Don'T See It

This poem is not about what is written, 
But what is not written. . .or said

They say there is beauty all around me,
all colorful, 
all bold
And that I just have to look.
They say,
The world isn't all grey.
"Just look behind you and you'll see it!"
"There is color right before you eyes!"
But I don't see it.
To me the grace and beauty of the world is unwritten.
I just don't see it now.
