BlindFold

Blindfold
Correct my eye sight so I can see now
Taken away from so many things
Never a bad thing
But sometimes the things I don’t see it’s like you’re blindfolding
me
Stop and listen to my cries
Even though my face is dry and without a tear
I need you to let me see this world
I’m old enough now; I’m no longer a little girl living through
you in your world
I need to see me now my reflection is telling me I’m all grown
up now
Look at the changes of my facial expression on my face, or my
mood from day to day
Listen to my voice. I do have a choice
Why aren’t you proud? Why don’t you smile?
This is me now
I’ve removed the blindfold you’ve tried to hold on my face
I’ve experienced things from heart breaks to getting failing
grades
I’m not mad about the past I wouldn’t take that back
Because threw bad experiences I’ve experienced
I’m not asking you to let go but to let me be
Let me see
Let me experience life as you had yours
I’m your child, but not a little girl anymore
