Don'T Look Blind

Don't Look Blind The flowers I bought you are still in their vase Dried out and dropping their petals like tears The hours we wasted were never a waste But now this house is as empty as the last 20 years To love and have lost, not a question at all Hopeful despair posing riddles, unmatched This silence answers a never placed call Rings like a bell with no clapper attached I love you, I'm sorry, I'm coming undone No consolation for my error of ways Trapped in between the fire, and sun The way out is through, the cure, the malaise You'll always find what you're looking for If you're always looking for what you find You'll never lose what you don't have anymore But if you should find it again, don't look blind
