Blind is the mind
shielded from truth
sheltered of insight
blinded from intuition
unfeeling of love.
Blind is the mind
of little care
for what is there
beyond the line of sight.
Blind is the mind
that sleeps though conscious
automatic in reaction
responding to impulse
habit and fear.
Blind is the mind
counting money as value
treassuring the material
as the measure of life.
Blind is the mind
frightened of love
fearing a loss of control
to unburden the soul.
Blind is the mind
lacking compassion
lost in self worth
feeding an appetite
of selfishness and greed.
Blind is the mind
that is not aware
conciousness is a state
above self.
Blind is the mind
that life is a journey
we travel alone
into tyhe unknown
on a voyage
towards wisdom
to atone.
Heavy is the heart
that realizes to late
the time has passed
that glimpse
was the last.
