FADED BLINDNESS

You were to me the golden goose
That laid my golden happiness
And made sure I sparkled, even in heat
But one knows not what awaits
If the hands are freed to search
No matter how precious something is,
Once left to go
It dissipates into nothing
So I set you to sail
From the seas of my heart
And watched you go far
Until you got lost
But now you show at my dock
On your knees like a tamed horse
Promising to carry my heaviest load
I was the puppy you fooled to hunt your feed
And the little kitty you fooled to cuddle
I was the being with no known eyes
So loved your antics and laughed
Even when cynics showed disgust
Higher realm cured my blindness
As pain severed my puppiness
Wisdom of the world cutting through my cathood
So turn liquid you past!
Turn liquid and flow beneath my gutters
Let me not see your colour
Watch me live or live highest
And in your mind, make me the most regretful
For not forgiving a one like you
Just know my taste changed
And whatever I ate to have your flu
Makes me vomit now
Regrets have no chance in my compound
So get up
Hop like a gallant soldier without a leg
And leave into your fate
Where my eyes rays will shine not
