When I Saw What I Didn't See

WHEN I SAW WHAT I DIDN’T SEE
THEN I BELIEVED WHAT I COULDN’T BELIEVE
THE INVISIBLE WAS STARING AT ME
ASKING ME IF I WAS ABLE TO  PERCEIVE

MY PERCEPTION WAS STRONG AND IT WAS REAL
NO DECEPTION TO MISLEAD HIDE OR CONCEAL
THE INVISIBLE AGREED TO OFFER ME A DEAL
THAT I TRUST WHAT I SAW THE SAME AS I DID FEEL

AND I FELT IT LIKE THE WHISTLING OF THE WIND
A BREEZE BLOWING ON THE SURFACE OF MY SKIN
THE INVISIBLE  SAID THAT HE TOO WAS MY FRIEND
KNOWING I COULDN'T SEE HIS BEGINNING OR HIS END

BUT THEN AGAIN  THE WIND I NEVER DID DOUBT
I SAW ITS POWER AND IT’S GOOD AND BAD RESULTS
THE INVISIBLE LAUGHED AND HE BEGAN TO SHOUT
YOU’RE STARTING TO UNDERSTAND WHAT I’M TALKING ABOUT

WHEN HE SAID THIS I STOOD STILL STANDING IN SILENCE
FEELING GUILTY OF COMMITTING AN EGREGIOUS OFFENSE
THE INVISIBLE STATED I’M NOT LOOKING FOR RECOMPENSE
YET I HATED MY DISPLAY OF LACK OF COMMON SENSE

HENCE, I STARTED EVALUATE WHAT WAS IN MY SIGHT
THE MATERIAL AND IMMATERIAL , THE WRONG AND RIGHT
THE INVISIBLE SUGGESTED THAT I OPEN WIDE MY EYES
ONLY THEN COULD I DISCERN WHAT IS TRUTH AND LIES

I LEARNED AT THAT MOMENT IN SPACE AND TIME
NOT TO TRY TO PUT A FACE ON WHAT IS SUBLIME
THE INVISIBLE SMILED AT MY REASON AND RHYME
I WAS BEGUILED AT THE SHIFT OF THE PARADIGM

THE INVISIBLE WAS STARING AT ME
ASKING ME IF I WAS ABLE TO PERCEIVE
THEN I BELIEVED WHAT I COULDN’T BELIEVE
WHEN I SAW WHAT I DIDN’T SEE
