without my glasses, I cannot see.

the world becomes a blur and colors blend.

however, I choose to keep them off.

the world says I look better without them.

although maybe that's the world's way of saying,

"I don't wish for you to see me as clearly as I see you."

who would want to anyway?

life is so much better when love is blind.

when I choose to gaze at the world without specs.

the rose tinted glass is lifted, but is replaced by lavender glazed fog.

without my glasses I am blind.

without my glasses I am free.
