blind man

By Johny_D_Lewis

Close your eyes
And just see with your hands
Let your other senses replace your eyes
This is a blind man's land

Get out of you shell
Look through your touch
And your sense of smell
I'm not asking too much

Use your hearing too
All you can do is try
It's what you must do
To yourself don't lie

Try looking at the world through a blind man's eyes
See with a blind man's sight
Please at least try
To live in the dark, not the light

This is his hell
This is a blind man's world
This is his shell
A very dark world.
