You

I used to 
think you 
were 
beautiful,  
today I 
can't even 
see your 
face, what 
happened? 
Where did 
the flower 
I 
found in 
you go? 
Did I go 
blind? Did 
the flower 
die?

I used to 
Love you. 
Today that 
seems 
impossible, 
how could 
I have 
Loved 
someone 
so 
insignificant?

I made a 
home in 
my heart 
for you, 
now I 
can't make 
myself care 
that you  
are an 
orphan.

I thought 
we were 
one and 
the same 
person, I 
still do, Im 
just 
temperarily 
blind, I 
can't even 
see the 
Light 
that 
sorrounds 
your 
Flower 
now.

I can't see 
the Love in 
you that 
mirror's 
your sad 
smile, I 
don't see  
the home 
you will 
always 
have in 
that 
smile and 
choose to 
be blind to 
the 
source 
that makes 
you and I 
one.
