Breathe For Blindness

I'll stop My Breath,
As if Breathlessness,
could pay dues to My regrets,
Hold nothing over my head,
And free me from the grip of Debt.

Maybe taking a leap,
would allow me some sleep,
as if sleeping could save me,
from a world of low self esteem.

I'd blind myself with nails,
as if being blind could hide the ugly,
The Ugly people,
not physical,
but inside,
People act as if Self worth is a hate crime.

I would take my legs,
and give them to you,
because you just wouldn't fit comfortably within my shoes,
long enough to see,
That love will just have to Be.

And Lastly I'll rip out my heart,
and throw it away,
"It's better",
Or so they say.

Breathing isn't for me,
leaping just to see,
That blindness would bloom perfectly,
in a crippled boy who lacks two feet,
who gives his heart just to be free.

He died from defeat.



tell me what you think.
