This slow and painful breakdown
Of my solidity is more than I can handle.
Questioning all I thought to be real,
I want to hide inside denial.
Forces I can’t explain pushing me
Down,down,down, and down.
The unknown a crushing coercion.
Inner peace a deceptive semblance
To the calm around me.
Empty eyes watch with certainty
That nothing is wrong with me.
But heaven forbid me sight.
Blind me and let me live in ignorance.
Leave me without knowledge of evil
So that I may live painlessly.
Heaven forbid me sound.
Leave me deaf to cries and screams.
Leave me without knowledge of the wicked
So that I may live painlessly.
Grant me oblivious nature.
Give me my innocence back.
Leave me blind,deaf, and dumb to my world.

Heaven Forbid
