Why must you avoid my touch?
Is it that you don't want people to see?
If that is the case,
then I would take this knife
and slash the eyes of every person in this city
so that you wouldn't be seen with me.
If that's what you really want.
And if even in a city of the blind,
you still won't walk down the street by my side,
I would tear out my own eyes,
and place them in a box for you to keep.
You can put them on the top shelf of your closet,
right above the box full of torn up pictures of me,
that are sitting there until you have time to burn them.
And while I'm walking with blood running out of my eye sockets,
and you are free to see and enjoy this beautiful sunset,
I'll sit in my room in the dark,
not saying a single word,
knowing that I'm not good enough for you.
I'll think of all the times you shot me down,
and I'll let my smile show in the dark,
hiding it from the rest of the world.
Just as you wanted to hide me.
I won't be hiding for long,
don't you worry.
Soon I will break out from the dark,
rising from the ashes,
and you'll be sorry then.
From everything that I had sacrificed,
I will take that and make it my strength.
conquering my fears without you.
I always could do that,
I just never knew.
I was too blind to see...
