The Power of Sight

Walking down the street

Hearing the sounds of laughter

Wondering how much the smile brings out their beautiful faces more

People flirting with each other and girls giggling but not being able to see the love flow between

It’s crazy how much we can see as humans and not even think twice about

The exchanging of eye contact would be lost

The protection of looking where you are going is gone

All you wish for is to see the stunning colors as the sun sets or rises

The trees beautiful red, orange, and brown color as fall sets upon the land

Snow covering the ground in a soothing color of white

Watching the flowers slowly lose their petals as they are soon going to die

Getting older and not knowing how you look or what it is like to see your reflection

Watching others be happy and seeing how they react when you are around.

On the bright side, you would feel love on a deeper level

You would be more personal with people and not judge based on appearance

You could get to know people differently

You couldn’t judge anyone for what they look like but how they act

You would never truly know the color of your eyes

Brown, blue, green, grey

Those are just words that you know

Things such as fall, summer, spring, and winter

Those are just seasons that mean nothing but weather to you

You never know when you walk into a room if it is the right room

Or if people are staring at you

Judging with their judgemental eyes because they can see you

Wondering why you are there and what you want

You can’t see them but you know they are there

When you walk in a room everything goes silent as if you were not a human but an animal

You are unlike others and for that most label you an outcast

You will never get to see your loved ones’ faces

Or feel the freedom of driving a car on an open road with the music up loud singing

Or see what everyone else sees

Your perspective on life will always be different

You are always in danger because you don’t know where you are

Love will be hard because people you may love may not love you

Because they can see

The only thing you see is darkness

And you aren’t sure if it is truly darkness because you have never seen the “light”
