Open Eyes. Poem by Safiyyah Manjra

How can you not see?
That shattered once causes a few pieces,
But shattered twice creates more pieces.

How can you not see?
That pain felt like ice,
Is felt worse if given twice?

How can you not see?
That when I say that I am here to stay,
It means I will not go away.

How can you not see?
That my love was made,
By you.

How can you not see?
That I only mean well,
Even if my words may make your eyes swell.

How can you not see?
For you I want peace.
All the pain to cease.

How will you see?
