"Schotoma"
A partial loss of vision or blind spot in an otherwise normal visual field.

In a way, we all ignore the obvious things in front of us without realization of ignorance. I remained oblivious.

Oblivious to the boy in the corner who knew I was beautiful before I came to the realization myself. I remained ignorant.

Ignorant to love I didn't believe I deserved; we accept the love we think we deserve.

I have come to understand, I deserve a lot more than I once believed.
