Blind (Free verse) by shwenatjadeflower
I
The blaring light of your aura blinds me
The ache of your goodness surrounds me
The taste of your skin reminds me
Of all the times you should have found me
Wanting and drenched in sin
Sometimes its good to be a bad girl
But not around you
In your perfect world
Where the sky is always blue
And the grass is always green
Where cars don't pollute the air
And people are not mean
Where everyone gives a care
There is no littering.
You live in a world
That is your own
Everyone has morals
That are known
And no one breaks
A promise to you
Everyone shakes
Is just and true
Methinks you are blind
If you opened you're eyes
You would find
That the sky isn't always blue
The grass isn't always green
Cars do pollute the air
And people Are mean
No one gives a care
There is littering
People Do have morals
but they aren't known
and that makes them all the easier to break
Promises are little white lies that are forgotten over time
I want you to know
I want you to see
I would remove your blindfold
But i am afraid of what you would think
When your eyes beheld...
Me
II
As I remove the wall
that has forever protected you
from the evils in this world
you glance about
your exuberant smile eases to a normal one
and then fades away
as you see the things ive seen
each and every day
it is a shock to see your world come crashing down on you
the smog chokes you
the sun blinds you
the heat engulfs your soul
as acid rain begins to pour
i rush you to my home
the sky, as god, is crying for you
for you cannot mourn
the loss of a world
that never was
