I want to go blind

by Chemically Corrupted   Nov 5, 2007


I want to go blind
So I don't see the hate
So I don't see the neglect
So I don't see the hurt
That everyone gives

I want to go blind
Because I'm tired of mankind
The killing, the lying, the cheating
I'm tired of all the bleeding
Of all the tears

I want to go blind
because no one sees
The drive bys
The fights in alleys
The dying in streets
The drugs going around

I want to go blind
Because no one sees
And I'll join them all
Ignoring the hurt, the cries
I'll just have to listen to the lies

    The repetition of the title worked well in this piece and exaggerated the point you're trying to make. I can see where your coming from in this piece and I think many people when they think about what you have said would agree with you. I saw that you put this poem in the sad category. Personally I think it would work better if you put it in life as this does talk about life and society today. The poem had an ok structure and flow. Again I think you need to use punctuation in your work. But other then that a good job. I could really see what your saying in the piece.

    This was a great poem. .

    people nowadays are too busy
    && consumed in their own thoughts.
    their own needs. their own worries.
    to even care about anything else.
    but themselves anymore. .

    5/5.
