Glitter

Brie

I lost my sight for a moment

Blinded by the glitter and gold and flashing lights

I couldn't see past the spotlights that were on me

They were keeping me from seeing 

And it wasn't because I was weak that I didn't fight it,

it was simply because I didn't want to

Because I loved the world revolving around just me for once

Because the world never orbited around me,

and the lights had never illuminated my eyes before

But I wasn't aware that the flashing lights, and the spotlights,

and all that gleaming glitter and gold,

was just a distraction

A mind game I'd locked myself into

And for now I've regained my sight
