Blinded

Im blinded by all that is evil 
and from all that is right
stuck in a dark corner 
where theres no such thing as light
people say walk into the light and i answer:
What light there is no such thing they tell me 
there is 
and i reply: well may be for you but not for
me 
not because mean nor because im shy but because
im blinded by all that is evil
and from all that is right
.

An interesting write. Sometimes it is very difficult to tell truth from lies and even good from evil.
