Blind

Trapped behind a thick veil.
You can't see through it, you
Know what is there, where
The path has led, what is on it.
It is totally wrapped up in fog.
No further than a few feet.
Gone is the landscape you knew.
It has become a mystery of bumps,
Tangles, pitfalls because you
Don't experience it in this way.
You learn the ground in a new
Way. Falling, stumbling, pitching
Until you reach your mark.
What did you learn for these few
Feet, did you come to trust some
New way, deeper into your own
Senses, even though they reel.
Did you catch yourself heading
For that big hole and feel your
Way onto a better path, let go.
Don't be afraid to go deeper.
