kendyll brown - ' Blind '

your beuaty intoxicates all u encounter
yet you fail to notice
so this is your blunder

you've had a rough time
though its over now
but u continue clinging
to what is left over

and in doing this
your deppression grows deeper
pulling u apart at the seams
causing you to unravel
nd falling to your knees
pondering desperatly' how much worse can it be? '

to ease your mind from this terrible burden
you bargain with the devil
causing your release
in turn for your soul
that you believe is tarnished
and not worth much at all
when all your friends have been with you
till now
but here come the crossroads ahead
they give you a choice
'stand tall or fall'

you have your beauty and charm
your intelligence and health
good friends and grace
and you have me,
so what more will it take for you? ?

to understand
and see that your life is
clear ahead
but my dear,
the choice is yours
