Too Late

Funny thing is
we don't see clearly
until it's too late,
staring and staring
until we're blind,
stunned by the truth.
We spend so much of our time
trying
to figure out the why's
that we forget to look inside ourselves...
we forget to think.
We forget how to feel, can't recall
what it was like
to really find yourself so inside a passion
--or pain--
and so we are all lost.
Some just find the end of the path sooner than others.
Sometimes we don't see clearly
until we are blind,
then it's too late.
