Blind
To rip my eyes out
Would be a blessing.
To be unable to see
This crap cluttered world
Curled into a ball
That falls through time and space
Retrace the orbit
So we don't get lost
But it's still a circle
The same paths we cross
Again and again
Going through the motions
Redundant notions
Until we strip our emotions
Of what it means to feel
What it means to connect with a person
On another level
To revel in each other's presence
To breathe in each other's essence
Causing an incandescent change
A foreign exchange
Until what was strange
Is now fused with your being
Some choose to deny this transformation exists
Ignoring the foundation
Of this dismissed dilemma
The problem is greed would rather steal
Than lose its green complexion
Pride would rather die
Than give others satisfaction
These sins are infectious
After starting they never stop
Fighting to get to the top
Of an upside down mountain
Drinking the fountain
Of eternal youth
But with youth comes immaturity
A purity missing clarity
Making them unable to see
And although my eyes are free
Of any debris
I would prefer to be
Blind.
