I'm Not Blind

                   

I believe you think I’m stupid.

Well I’m not, and I’m not blind.

I see the things you’re doing, and

I can read between the lines. You

Think you are sneaky, and you’re

Getting over on me?  Don’t think

Because I’m quiet, there are

Things I do not see.

I believe you think I’m dumb.

Like I can’t see all the signs.

My eyes seem closed to the

Situation, but believe me, I’m

Not blind! Please don’t believe

My silence means that I don’t

Know. I just know when I reveal

It, I will have to let you go.

I believe the day is coming, when

You will see I’m not blind. That’s

The day I’m leaving, and all you’ll

See is my behind!
