Sounds move around me

Something pulsing vaguely

I can hear it

I wish no more

Protected in this embrace

My black world

Brought by my veiled vision

I don’t want it

I look for other sights

Those eyes cannot see

And some minds perceive

Each form tells a story

Of hands caressing before mine

Artist’s care in each edge

In each sharp splinter

Prickling my skin

Each touch and sound

Silent messengers

No one tries to hear

But everyone seems so blind

Running from one side to the other

Not caring to wait

Not trying to touch

Not attempting to learn

More sightless than I

Here standing, eyes closed

How can they fail to see this beauty?

Loved whispers of the wind

Kindly caressing my skin

Soft touches blowing my hair

I know I’m smiling

And though my eyes can’t see it

I know I’m being ignored

Fear of my strange soul

Halting in the middle of a street

Eyes covered, arms open

Warm sun on my unseeing eyes

Hearing the Earth murmur in my ears

A gentle embrace

Protecting and caring

Why deny this freedom?

Laugh if you want to

Cry when you wish

Dance in the rain

Just sing when none hears you

Or just for this world

Muffling these dead sounds

Living is both sides

Death and Life

Joy and Sorrow

Everyone denies one

Always fleeing

So much fear

Failing in that attempt

So they ignore me

That child they see

Embracing both sides

I hear you coming now

My kindred spirit

In this other world

My cherished half

Treasured companion

And I open my eyes

Ignoring those lingering shadows

Taking your shine deep inside

Imprinting it in my memory

I just know…

When I laugh

You’ll laugh as well

Not questioning why

When I cry

You’ll be here

Crying with me

Embrace as silent comfort

You understand

Alive like you are

Here with me

And we both see

That different world

Other colours and shapes

Your hands trace my lips

Sensing my smile

My joy in just being

As I take it in mine

Dance with me dear one

Feel with me this rain

Any pain

Every joy

Smile with me

Eyes closed I sense only you

Eyes open I see only yours

So come with me loved one

Shiver with this blessing

From fear

Every passion

Live with me

Live this freedom

Either here or far from me

Live and I’ll keep smiling

Life is this

Existing aware of it

Embrace each day

Uncaring if it’s the last

Ignore not the seven colours

Don’t let go of other views

Look at the stars

Smile at the sun

Just live for yourself

And I will smile

Always smiling

Even as shadows come

Two faces indeed

And I embrace each one

I’ll wait somewhere

In this other world for you

Just hear my laughter then

And live for me too

A.N – I’m not every happy in how this one turned out. Anyway please review and tell what you think
