Emotional Blindness

By 1stpoet

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Emotional Blindness My blindness has become vision for by not seeing the seen and seeing for the first time the unseen knowledge, itself, has come by watching the world and all that is around me I lost sight of myself Who I Was What I Wanted UNFEELING in the light now Naked and feeling all in darkness love tastes like the beauty of butterfly wings the delicate sweetness captured in my heart the pain of another's death jagged as a mountainside shook by emotions a landslide of tears cascades down cheeks red as a sunset worn flesh from rubbing away the salt coming in oceanic waves of sorrow like fine grains of sand Time, People special moments slipped through my fingers falling as dust slowly each memory glimmers again as if sunlight were coming through slats in my mind the show of these shimmering memories is reminiscent of meteor showers watched on a summer night laying on a field of wildflowers I am warmed by all I see now I smell the beauty of life and living I am caressed and comforted by thought William S.
