True Prize

What if you were only your eyes,
And their bodies were just a disguise,
A vision of nothing but lies,
Would you be able to claim your prize?

You can try with all of your might,
All day and all night,
But you'll find the faults of sight,
Depending so heavily on light.

The best of us don't use our eyes like me,
But rather we use our hearts to see,
If you would try it you would agree,
That without your eyes you can be free.

You'd learn that in the darkest place,
There flickers a light eyes can't trace,
There is much more than just a face,
But you could never know that taste.

As time keeps ticking away,
And their bodies start to decay,
Will you still see them the same way,
As you did the first day?

What if you weren't only your eyes,
And their bodies were just a disguise,
Would you still look for beautiful lies,
Or would you seek a true prize?
