BlindMan Faced to the Sun n his Woman

I see the BlindMan faced to the sun

Bright rays are shinning on his dark pupils

BlindMan, holding the hand of his Woman


Yellowish white hands

Soft like a dough

Delicate like a song

Warm like an autumn morning

Caring like a mother

The hands of the BlindMan's Woman


BlindMan, faced to the sun

BlindMan, holding the hand of his Woman


His hands are dark brown

Strong like a stone

Groovy like drumsticks

Heated like burning coals

Concious like a father

The hands of the BlindMan


It's better that he doesn't see the sun

Sun shines better in his veins

Veins flow better his love


"I see U hv changed as I love U to..."

The BlindMan says

"I hv become thin n U hv become too

I hv become woozy as U hv drained out to me"


"All we hv are our hands"

The BlindMan sighs


Its better dat the BlindMan doesn't see the sun


"Where hv all our babies gone?" His Woman asks

The Woman of the BlindMan

Its better her Man doesn't see the sun

She likes the way he senses her hairs are greying

N the way he senses the babies are growing


"I am going to make U some food" his Woman says

"Let me bring U somthing hot n healthy"

Its better her Man doesn't see the sun


I see the BlindMan faced to the setting sun

Evening shadows are disappearing his eyelids

A BlindMan holding the hand of his Woman


"Where hv all the babies gone?" Asks the BlindMan's Woman

The BlindMan senses "the babies are around.  Let them play."

Its better the BlindMan doesn't see the sun.


"Lets dine together" says the BlindMan to his Woman

"One for U one for me

Two for U two for me"


"Lets sleep together" says the BlindMan to his Woman

"Ur hairs smell like flowers

Ur skin feels like rose petals"


Its better the BlindMan doesn't see the sun

Sun shines better in his veins

Veins flow better his love
