Robin Parker - Can you see?

In the middle i stay
Never leaving
Yet never coming
Why?

In time you see
What i am
Can you see it?
In the corner

That sparke
That breath
That look
Your smile

I can see it
Can you?
It takes time to see
What i can only dream

Lifeless i sit
Colourless i am
Perfection always my cue
Make it right, do it now

Why can't i make you see
Why don't you know
I only try
I only mimic them

Its not real
I am a fake
To good to be true
Nothing

In darkness i die
Not to be heard of again
Gone
Forever. Now leave

You can't see
You don't know
No sparkle
No look

Waste of time
