Blindfold Reverse
It keeps ticking my pain away
this heart filled with sour gall
fading memories keep pace
time speeds and slows like the sea
crashing and flooding a single moment
you’re chained and can’t get freed
being whipped by maverick waves
wanting to drown beside the cliffs
bobbing up after every dive
engulfed in a frozen snapshot
wandering lost in a darkroom
haunted by sounds of long ago
I sit my hands are a blindfold
