Dancing
Dancing in the darkness, unable to see
I fall to the ground, finding myself alone
Many can see the pain when it isn't there
I can't see anything (anywhere)
I open my eyes to the darkness
I welcome it
I fight it
I close my eyes and reach out, it can't be felt
I am blind
I stumble across a friend
Two walking without sight
Forward
Backward
Where are we going
I turn to my friend and can't see them
I crave for some light, some insight
I sit and wait wasting my time
I know what to do, why can't I do it
When I am hungry I eat, at least I want to
When I am tired I sleep, at times without choice
Why then won't I open my eyes so I can see
I know how
Why don't I want to
