Five of Cups

By Shashama

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

She doesn't see Just how beautiful she is And she doesn't see How much we love her All she sees Is a warped view Of herself She doesn't see How good she is She doesn't see How much we care And she doesn't see That so many people Would do the things That she wanted If she only let them If she only opened up She doesn't see How good she is And she doesn't see How talented she is All she sees Are her faults All she sees Are the things She doesn't have But she can't see What she does have She can't see She has been blinded For far too long And she won't Let us help her To seeI named this "Five of Cups" because that card in the Tarot represents looking at all the things you don't have, and not the things you do...
