What Do You See?

What Do You See?

What Do You See?

What Do You See?

As time goes on
I realize
That what I see
Through my eyes

Is in my perspective
My personal view
And it's probably different
Than what's seen by you

My feelings are altered
By the life that I've known
My opinions are tainted
Influenced as I've grown

So in this moment
That we share together
I may see a duck
While you spot a feather
