Blind
By Muriel Palanca
You never notice
You never see
Just a thin glass wall between you and me
Just pay attention
Hear me out
You turn away while I scream and shout
You cant feel my pain
But you've touched my heart
No strings attached
We drift apart
Just look at me
Hold my hand
Im nothing more than a grain of sand
A fish in the water
A bird in the sky
Dont let go
Dont make me cry
A weeping willow with silent tears
She sways back and forth
Holding on to her fears
Im not perfect
I wish I was
Pristine Perfect
No scars or flaws
No broken pieces
No bittersweet dreams
No shattered mirror with reflections decieved
Look past my face for an instant or two
Remember my image while I hold onto you
I try to let go
But cant help but hold on
Maybe you'll miss me when I'm finally gone
I waited so long
I wish you were mine
I wish you could see that
But you'll always be blind
