I am blind
I am blind
I wonder what the sunset looks like from a view
I hear whispers of curiosity that tickle my ear
I see nothing but fear in my own eyes
I want a single day of sight
I am blind
I pretend the darkness I see is the darkness of the night
I feel embarrassed but yet ignored
I touch the stick that lights the path to everywhere I go
I worry that I won’t be able to see the future
I cry at the opportunities I may never have
I am blind
I understand that I am not like them, I am different
I say that it’s not what you see but what you believe
I dream of the moment the flickering sun is blown out
I try seeing what I think and thinking what I feel
I hope that the darkness in front of me is just me hiding under my covers
I am blind
