Blessed are the Blind,
They don't see the things I have to see
My eyes bring vision of the pain
Life bestows 'pon me

They tell me things, they feed me lies
that breed toxic jealousy.
Blessed are the blind,
For they don't have to see

Nice poem...I was assuming you were speaking of figurative blindness, either way it was a nice read.
