If Only

If only I could see. I see who I think I am and yet it different then how you see me. If only I could see. I see all the things I’ve done wrong yet I can never see all the accomplishments I’ve had. If only I could see. I see the flaws when it come to the chocolate coloring of my skin but I never see the beautiful freckles sprinkled across my chest or my almond shaped eyes holding endless brown depths. If only I could see. The sad things is that I do see me, I just choose to ignore it
