We say I,
Yet we never see,
Our eyes eternally shut.
Our mouths wide open.
We say, I
Over and over again.
Hoping for it to take on a different note,
Wishing for our hopes to not choke.
I,
I want to know…
We never ask.
I,
I want to see the world.
We are still blind to it.
And the question why hangs in the air.
Without an answer,
Yet with mouths wide open,
We seem to have nothing to say.
To answer them,
Instead,
We say, I
I...
Stutter.
I…
Searching.
I…
Finally, words suspend.
I am merely my own perspective.
I look through my own eyes.
Without being able to recognize
Who stares back at me.
We forget,
That as much as we say I,
We say you, just the same.
