Sightless

Look past sightlessness.

Past skin.

Past oceans.

Past eyes.

Past the golden parallels of pattern.

Past the fireless Sun.

Past the foreboding of impeding future.

 

Reach out.

Breathe.

Touch.

 

Close your eyes and welcome the absence of light.

Close your eyes and listen to the heartbeat of a distant soul.

Close your eyes and taste the moments of a different time.

 

Where are you?

Look past the colors, the

explosions of sunset

the precision of a blue sky

keep running through mountains

through arid countries, and raging hurricanes

 

Where are you?

 

Look past the weightless fire

the endless walls that surround

every foreign continent

Past the frozen landscapes

of a thousand winters

 

Where are you?
