Just Believe

One has no voice,
The other has no eyes.
They walk together,
So there is no surprise.

 One is a tall man,
 The other small.
One has a vision,
And tells all.

 You need only ask,
If you dare,
But you better be careful,
You better beware.

 Knowing what he knows,
Knowing what he shares,
Knowing where he goes,
Only the boldest dares.

 The blind man looked in the mirror,
And saw dirt on his face.
The mute heard himself speak,
But wondered what’s his fate?

 Lye soap in the vat,
Don’t take a bath.
The vessel to his heart,
Is what you lack.

Drifting into the unknown,
Further than ever before.
His predetermined destiny,
Befalls him once more.
