Blind Kind

Without saying anything, you say it all
Without even trying, hard, you do it all
No change
In expression
Even when you like
To hide
Yourself away

I see you shy away from being one of them
The others.
Behind those inquisitive, free-spirited eyes is a seething, simmering shame

You’re untraceable, while implacable
You walk this difficult life
Without leaving a path for me to find
To follow and hold
It’s as if you’re unimpressed
But at the same in awe
of life’s ability to please and scar
To wreck, to score.



This life we lead, we walk with eyes closed,
As one we are strong, resilient; hard to bring down
But as single struggling beings,
We are meaningless without our team
