Seeing Without Eyes

Seeing Without Eyes

by t.a.mayes

I have stood atop the barn

and fallen into the grass below.

I have raised my sword to the heavens

and cut a gaping hole in the sky.

When times are in terrible suffering

I have raised your spirits.

I climb rocky terrain and allow

you to see beyond the future

but you were blinded by the colors

blasting out of the darkness.

You will not allow yourself to 

look without opening your eyes.

I have asked you to speak and you 

will not believe I will listen.

Focus not on the untruths that

guide you wrongly and off the path.

Until you know me I cannot let

you into the nothingness with me.

Now sleep with your eyes wide open,

convince me you know within the knowing.
