Sight

Beautiful view

Displayed for the blind eyes of the world

 

 

Those blind eyes never see what is real

 

 

Eyes that will never make it past the skin

Eyes that rip apart the heart of beauty

Eyes that don’t deserve to gaze

Eyes that take what isn’t theirs

Eyes that break every rule

 

 

Those blind eyes never see what is real

 

 

They are empty windows

     To empty heads

They are liars

     To those who need the truth

They are thieves

     Stealing from the poor

   To feed their terrible notions.

They are cowards

     Hiding from the scenes that they create

   Hiding away hoping to disappear.

 

 

Those blind eyes never see what is real

 

 

To see you need to close your eyes

Let your heart be your guide

Listen to what they have to say

Tuck your biases away

Then,

With eyes closed you will see

The depths of inner beauty.

 

 

Those blind eyes never see what is real

I really enjoyed this poem. The last stanza really makes the entire poem work. Nicely done.

If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.

Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) American poet.
