Your Heart's Eyes
sometimes
you see what
you want to see
what you need
too see
what your heart
has to see
but your heart’s eyes
have made you blind
then one day you
look in the mirror
and you notice
not so much your
reflection but
the reflection of
the world around
you which is not
what it seemed
and you notice
in this reflection
your reflection
is missing
so fragile is
the nature of hope
