a learned lesson

Contributed by Strat on Thursday, 12th February 2004 @ 07:56:23 PM in AEST
Topic: oops



bound and confused
lead by the blind man's sight
i'll trust it for now
it's betreyal looms,
ominous, and bewildering
i've looked into the light that would kill most
will it help me to fight the wild rapids ahead
a will to do more than most
and a mind set on one railway
does nothing for me now
it's here and i'm here
and face offs are all but certain
tears of the father fill my veins
and make my burden grow
this new handicap may prove fatal
in a fight for life and all those who oppose it
will i win for good and evil
and when it's all over
and there is nothing left but the loss of victory
hollow and solem in its regret
will i find the error that has befallen me
or will i continue to fight
oblivious to what might have been my surroundings

I see now why others don't comment. Words hardly to justice to such emotion. Good job for lack of better words.

People can be blind. It's what makes us human, annoying and distressing as it is. Hopefully your poem will be able to make them open their eyes a little.

I agree with both previous comments. No words can describe the emotion and there are times when people are blind.
