Sky black and blue,
Torn from the light it seems,
Profound to provide warmth,
But yet sheds cold.

Earth’s filled with it’s brownish-reds, blues,
And greens… That have gone black and white…
Or so it seems to me, there is no color, no vibrance,
Just ignorance.

The sea so blue, so deep;
Sunken ships lay at it’s bitterness
In defeat; or so it seems to me…

It’s people have seem to gone corrupt,
Insensual, lost… That’s what it speaks to me;
I’ve come to believe I want to be blind;
Not notice these things, maybe be the sign of peace.
This seems to be a calling of mine; which breaks the dark black, blue, sky.
Or so it seems…

This piece was inspired by my heart and mind. It's about the beauty that comes in blindness...
Love is blind, eyes are our enemies.
