I said I’d need a miracle To turn it around And you just can’t see That it’s you I want it to be You are everything And nothing that could be But you just can’t see me I’m so inferior And so small I said I’d need a miracle To turn it around And you still can’t see That this Is killing me You are amazing I can’t think of your face Without wanting to smile But you just won’t see me I’m too small I said I’d need a miracle To turn it around But you have your back turned And without looking You’ll never see That you are the only one That I want it to be. small insignificant useless me |

Why do we always want what seemingly can't (or, perhaps, shouldn't) want? Haven't most of us been there? Nice poem though. Barb |

All things are possible but after all is said and done and experienced I don't really want a woman that doesn't want me...that doesn't think I am special...a very important concept to consider...James |

Ask for a miracle enough and Im sure you will get it in due time! Very touching piece! It's not the load that breaks you down, it's the way you carry it. ~ Lena Horne |
