Don’t Look at Me

Don’t look at me

In terms of

Limited possibilities

You don’t

Need a limited

Expectation

Of who

I should

Be.

Don’t look at me

With eyes of pity

As if you need

To feel sorry

For me.

You see

Brokenness

Becoming blind

To the beauty

You cannot see.

You tell me

With the things

You say

And do

Not say.

Words and silence

Both speak

And looks of

Withering pity
