Blind Sight

My eyes are a part of me
Without my eyes, I could not see.

It would be hard to philosophise
If I were blind in both eyes

Decisions would be hard to make
Others opinions I would not take

Without being able to look
At a newspaper or a book

The news is not always the truth you see
Some people with seeing eyes
Sadly survive by telling lies
