Right In Front Of Me Poem by Ray Hansell

You showed me how beautiful
Being in love can be
You showed me if I opened my mind
Just what a lovely world I’d see

You said if I gave love a chance
I would be so surprised
You said sometimes love is there
Right before your eyes

Looking back I now see
What you were trying to say
I now realize the one I loved
Is the one that went away

Right in front of me
You were there the whole time
I was busy looking for someone else
I must have been out of my mind
