FOR ALL AROUND US WE ARE BLIND My brokenness hides in your arms As shattered shards that seek protection Your eyes are blind to imperfection Too bright to see, sunlight blinds Eyes move too fast to really mind While you just give me all your warmth In your love I see me whole In my scared eyes you are all-seeing I give to you my tiny being I love your eyes, they hold me tight As I look deep into your soul You glue me back with your embrace I guide you with unending patience Like you guide me, and so we balance Thus our love grows and we repair With slow but never halting pace With love and laugh and gentle care One day, my love, that day I’ll find You waiting for me, I will touch you For you do hug me, oh, please do We are much stronger then, and oh We won’t need seeing eyes, or legs too For all around us we are blind And you nor I do really mind.
