Blind

I'm blind

Metaphorically speaking

I can feel but i can't see

Well, what do you see?

You say it many times

Theres something ahead of me

Something great, something grand

I, I alone in this world

I fell from so high

And now i don't know if i can see

Or if this is all just an allusion

You see, i hit my head

Rather hard on something i couldn't make out

Probably reality

It ****** me back in

Keeping the blood i'd lost and leaving me lightheaded

Now everything is blurry

Yesterday and tomorrow are the same

Today never even happened

And i can't see your face

Those eyes, that smile, those lips

I'm blind
