Blind Visions
When you're all alone with nothng to do, the silence of stillness makes life so in tune.
The clouds in the sky, so slowly float by, to reveal a small glimpse of the moon.
The sky's void of stars, the blackness engulfs, my mind and body encompass the night
My eyes are blind to all of mankind, in an instant my soul takes flight.
I'm taken away on invisible wings, to a place where I've shed many tears.
I remember the dark, a dogs vicious bark, although it's been 20 years.
I knew the path well that I traveled each day, but without reason I bowed in prayer.
This time my fear, sensed trouble was near, in the blink of an eye it was there.
I was on the ground before I could scream. All I could see was teeth and those eyes.
Angelic grace surrounded my face. Then someone heard my anguished cries.
My life nearly ended that day long ago, by my angel came down from above.
I could sense God's presence, his glorious essence. I was filled with the power of Love.
