Blinded
March 16, 2013
Yesterday, I sprinted fast
Toward your open arms
I thought I rushed towards happiness
But, really, it was harm
You grabbed me and you choked me
I never thought I'd be
So played & harmed by someone else
When setting my heart free
I wanted you to hold me
I just wanted to love
But now I feel so down below
When, before, I rose above
And now you are my weakness
A drug, a kryptonite
You've beat me and I'm blinded
I miss my sense of sight
