Beat Me Blind

I can't see

What others see

I'm blind

To anything on the outside.

Useless.

It's true, I rather am

Feeble.

I can't stand up for anyone

I can't see

You've beaten it out of me

The ability to know

What I could be

Scared

Of everything and all

Worthless

I mean nothing to anyone

In my eyes

I am all of these things

In your eyes

I'll always be these things

But in his eyes

I am amazing..

And soon, very soon

I hope to see that too.
