The Blind Lover

Truly I screamed 
In the middle of the night 
When all life laid I wept  
I thought you heard
I thought you saw
I thought you know 
That the smile 
A lie, concealed it
In your eyes 
pain I wasn't feeling
In your eyes 
My troubled soul was laughing
In your eyes  
You are a blind lover
Seeing your self and no other
