I See!

I See!

I look in front of me and you are there

Like the North Star, guiding me and lighting my way

Through life.

I look to my right, my strong side, and you

Are there, to help me and protect me.

Then I look behind me…

But you are not there, you are not there!

My vulnerable side where I am not able

To see, exposed to danger and the clawing

Hands of the past.

I look to my left…

But you are not there, you are not there!

My weak side where I am not able

To defend myself,

Exposed to my enemies and their hateful

Words.

Why is this so?

Why?
