Poem: Blinding Light

Discovering all that I got could go so long.

Something is blocking and hindering my vision I’m Stubborn,

all that I want could be gone, and it can all be unrolled

I’m unwilling to understand that what is missing could make me whole

I have to decide between having you in my life

Or leaving you who make me smile alone

But I’m a fighter so I will battle for my sunshine

Even if I have to through the week or the weekend

Struggling to visualize through this dark passage that holds out light I want to become un-blinded and see my sunshine at the end and finally see day light

Through this passage I will dodge anything that will lead me in misdirection

I’m blinded I know what I’m missing is right in-front of me,

but i struggle to find your connection

Where is my sunshine if I was true to myself about you, you wouldn’t be hidden....

If I wasn’t blinded my eyes would read so truly of what I’m missing....

It would all come to light(everything)

I can’t use anything to remove the darkness, a flashlight, or match

Or anything else that I could use to see through the dusk and ignite.

I don’t want to have to remember you in my memories

We have a connection that goes far beyond facts of the past and experience...

I speak to you, I feel you, I hear you, I believe in youYou hear me, you see me,

you speak to me, you are proud of me But I can’t see you

If I do not notice what is in-front of me I will miss it forever

It’s I who keeps me from learning how to distinguish Who my sunshine is,

I can’t even be true to myself yet to even catch a glimpse

If it is not today that I will see my sunshine when will it be?

When is it going to be? I'm missing you even though you are right here In front of me

Fearful of being all alone, wish I had given you more of my time

More notice more concentration to my sunshine

Starting to receive a light, through this journey realizing what is real

Being true to myself, I see you smiling, you brightened up my day It’s getting tough to see...

Difficult to breathe Getting too blurry to see

Waited too long to discover who was my sunshine would be

Even though he was right in-front of me

I want to bring back my sunshine

Please send him back to me Loosing what I had did not bring sight

Not realizing to the end, my sunshine gave up And only left behind a

Blinding light ...... ..
