When I Could See - FAR

When I could see, I just had to see to believe

Knew for sure, but didn’t know

Mistakes were born of need

Waited up for love like parents for troublesome teens

We fed each other, binged and purged and yearned for sleep

Crowded and lonely

Shoulder to shoulder

Pushing forward

Sinking lower

Now that I’m blind, I’ll have an easier time

Look around, look again in other ways

We could laugh and talk about all the things we’ve seen

My love, will you go blind with me?

Touch me to find me

We can go climbing

To the top of the world

Ever higher…
