WHY CAN YOU NOT SEE POETRY?

Why can you not see poetry, going on holidays?
Why can you not see poetry, going through your darkest days?
Why can you not see poetry, unhealthy as fast food?
Why can you not see poetry, sense wealthy like it should?

All I can see is light and dark, and millions shades of gray,
Maybe there is some blue and red, I don't know but I pray,
Maybe there is some love that words still failing to describe,
Can justify my claim to be part of a human tribe.

Anyhow, I'm lost for words,
I just strum my wordless chords,
Should I sing, or should I scream?

Anyhow, someone hears,
Of a sudden the sky clears,
Not a tribe, just a team.

I think the ending is weak compared to the rest of which is just freaking awesome.

It almost reads like an upbeat Broadway musical number.
