Clay Young Jr Poet Rhyme

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
