Blind Sighted

Brief moments allow for the full effect
Lacking ability and means to even begin to prepare
The only way to fight back is to reflect
And reminded with hearts, there comes never a spare

With said insights, still unable to disconnect
Such a seamless match, can be nothing but rare
Hard exteriors and guards put up even struggle to protect
And if cause becomes lost, we are all too aware

Rush of emotion, attempt to deflect
Each battle leaving conditions much worse for the wear
Choosing not to anticipate what is clear and should expect
Faith that neither exempt hinder the want to go anywhere

Remaining wits are vital, leave nothing to collect
Far from certain with an end unseen, blinded from glare 
Found in vulnerable position seems incorrect
Blinded by love ceases all care 

For choices none less than of the highest respect
Is to risk both entities being stripped bare 
Experience showing how detrimental a hit so direct
Making it through a dream worth enough to dare
