Blind

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  




Author's Notes/Comments: 

This is another one of my elementary poems. Its simple and straightforward. I can't believe that I used the word "fish" in this poem...lol. I want to use this title for a different poem...
