To See and Be Unseen

To See and Be Unseen

My look unknown
My gaze unseen
I've never looked through her
Because I can't
I can't see passed my future
I can't see beyond my heart
My love
My world
I cannot lift my eyelids
Without the strength she gives me
I cannot dance
Without her song
I cannot hope
With her gone
Absent from her mind
I know it may never be
That I find a place in her heart
This truth
Puts the sadness in one eye
And hope in the other
When they close
The battle between them
Is made known only to me
As it should be
My challenge faced alone
My struggles battled alone
My fate challenged alone
I open my eyes
And face the next day
With hope and sadness
Keeping me continued
