Would I get eyes for my brother´s heart? It is there where sight originates from, eyes only transmit vision

From the depths of my soul
I see the sparkle of hope
But unable to share it with a brother
Who is just as blind as a bat
Not able view anything in the heart
Unless he wades through a lake of ignorance
He is a prisoner of his own jail
Never venturing to defect to the light of freedom
Ever languishing in pits of misery
Darkened by the shadows of tribalism
