To Blind To See

We were lovers who abandoned reason
And felt the rush of time filled with passion
That filled a lonely hole from life's treason
In small rented rooms as was our fashion
We caressed our naked souls without fear
And shared our heartbeat's tremble with each kiss
The truth was not seen though forever near
When we crossed a flawed bridge to meet our wish
This distance traveled ended in sadness
Doomed to perish our loneliness beget
Trapped in our age difference by our madness
Until the coldness of we never met
Perhaps a memory kept to remind
Of love,  that I knew once when I was blind
