Lumpy Oatmeal makes me Crazy!

Eyes Closed

If I close my eyes
I can see more clearly
My fingers stumble over the page
and paint the picture of my mind.
Colors meld into pastel rain
bleeding to become one
My eyes wiped clean
by my lashes as they catch the drops
not tears
until they are wiped away
and I, eyes closed, can see.

If I close my eyes
I can hear my soul better
Clarity of my mind overwhelms me
Echos of lost cries from my heart
trapped in thoughts
that cotton the white noise
And I can see
Colors pure
Clashing until they dream
Crashing into the hole
they begin to fill.

With my eyes closed
I can see.

I found a half written poem that I couldn't figure out where the inspiration came from, now I remember.  I'm so glad you're having fun here!  It's nice to get feedback instead of the silence we get other places, eh? *smiles*

I love this! Neat concept that passes through my own mind now and then but I never knew quite how to say it.
