Tunnel Vision 3/31/15
So damn focused you can’t even blink.
I’m tired of flailing around you.
Purging heaps of advice into your insolent mouth.
You seem to only hear his mumble through my howl.
Focusing only on his speck of light at the end of your
tunnel vision.
Your eyes only dart from the places he goes.
Your ears only hear the things he says.
Your imprudent sense of self-worth only revolves around his
actions.
We are all still here, too, ya know?
Yet you have placed us within the linings of darkness that
surround your tunnel vision.
You have become blind to us and blinded by him.
I refuse to be sabotaged to live on the outer rim of your
focus.
Wasting away somewhere in your distance.
If only you’d blink.
A blink taking you out of your tunnel for just one moment
so
you could see all the different specks of light that make up your life.
But you are so implacable
you've destined yourself to stare
into his one speck of light for so long
that now all your eyes are merely muddled to see is
all of
NOTHING.
