under the bridge

i'll never know for sure what is real

perception has a way of painting reality

distortions are often small and imperceptible

consequences are almost always monumental

life does go on like a freight train at high speed

going back trying and change is impossible

in the long haul i need to be kind to myself

i need to see myself as the person you see

i am blind without your image of me

i am deaf without your words

i am unfeeling without

your glowing nature
