Blinded

I realize and analyze, I just can't categorize,
Still, this inspiration is what I really prize.
Sometimes, I want to throw it all to the sky,
I'll give up and sit back, I won't explain why.
There's something new in the air today,
There's some sunshine in this winter day.
There's still some hope left in this cynic, it seems,
They're not getting bigger, just closer- my dreams.
Every day is different, every moment is a change,
But it's time to cherish all that seems so strange;
Do what you want to and stop holding back,
Walk away from the worn and battered track.
There's nothing like ever being truly free,
This earth and it's people, to me, are a mystery.
Bask in the joy of not knowing, but only if
The secrets excite you, and you're scared stiff.
Don't live in ignorance, don't live by common word,
There'll always be more to life than you're seen or heard.
Don't believe what they say, don't rebel for no cause,
If you're a radical, learn to live by your own laws.
There's so much in my gray matter, I'm in awe, I'm afraid,
But let every man know, I don't regret having stayed.
The intricacies of human nature often blind me,
My preconceptions and illusions often bind me.
Blinded and bound, I can't see all that I want,
Ignorance is bliss, but these cries will always haunt.
