Living in the dark doesn’t always mean being blind

Dark alone can’t hide life which is goodness

That which is good always is visible

That which is right is never hidden

Living in the dark doesn’t always mean being blind.

Blindness is more than a state of mind

It is the reality of shutting out life

Blindness can’t shut out life

Although darkness can make seeing difficult

Living in the dark doesn’t always mean being blind.

Sometimes not being able to see

Is more than being surrounded by dark

Sometimes not being able to see

Is choosing not to allow life inside

Not allowing life inside always means being blind

That which is visible is clear to all

That which is life is entirely visible

No matter the shadows that hide sunlight

No matter how dark the eyesight might be

Choosing life always means never being blind.

Shadows of light cross my vision

My eyesight is only partially clear

My mind is befuddled by wrong thoughts

Sometimes I am tired and confused

Always I will choose to see life

And

Never will I really be blind!
