you close your eyes and lose your sense of self;
your thought of who you are is what you see.
you fade into the background, slowly melt,
'til "you" could just as easily be "me."
your eyes spring open--did you grow afraid?
discomforted by what you could not sense?
could individuality not fade?
you must stay conscious of your existence?
it's such a shame that vision still needs sight,
that sense is needed for you to perceive.
you'll never learn to learn the way that's right
unless you cease to panic when sight leaves.
the secret is, the body cannot know
how far beyond the mind could truly go.

Very nice ... You wrote about my feeling >>really i like it so much
I've read this several times through. This part particularly struck a chord with me:
"you'll never learn to learn the way that's right
unless you cease to panic when sight leaves."
Yes. Thank you for sharing your insight.
