If only I weren't here
If only I couldn't hear
or feel or see or fear...

and I may get the above too!

what is interesting is in the first three lines the speaker writes "if only i could be everything," "...shine," "...learn" but in the fouth, by placing "be" on a new line, the speaker wants to simply exist. However, in the next line, the reader finds out the completion of the thought is the speaker wants to be someone else.

For a split second, there is hope.

Love the poem
