Lost Sight

Once again, my brother has written a poem that moves me deeply inside.

commonsensiblyspeaking



~~~

Envying those who have more

We lose sight of how to give

And in the race to be like them

We lose sight of how to live

~~~

In the want to be pedestalled

We lose sight of the ledge we climb

Shiny bobbles to keep us fooled

We lose sight of how precious time

~~~

When wealth is all we idolize

We lose sight of just who we are

When looking down from up above

We lose sight of our guiding star

~~~

And here lies man’s great tragedy

For there is more in life to find

Having sight does not mean we see

When we choose to remain so blind

~~~
