The blind
Day in day out everything remains the same. Clouded in twilight is the order of the day. Stretching my stick always as the lead cause I can't walk without the trace. Even the sky seems so dark cause all I see is dusk. Wasn't born like this, although for some of us it has always been like this from dawn. Hold my hands and walk with me else I walk to my own. Have you ever imagined what we feel inside? How long can you hold still without having an insight? for us, the scenery is just a word and vision a thing of the heart cause our eyes can't do the work of sight. Is it morning already? Oh! how would I know when for me, every time is night. Can't visualise but got a good sense of understanding things. After all, it's only my eyes that are locked my heart and brains are still intact and very much good at dealings. If you love me then show me compassion and not pity feelings. Blind I admit but not less a human being. Always I pray and wish to see at least the sky. Have I been the worst sinner that i have been struck with this that makes me cry? I want to appreciate the beauties of the world, but I can't and you know why. I said I love you and would love to marry Instead of yes, you laughed at me in dismay. Sometimes it feels like I don't exist, imagining how everything coexist, even my own face I see through imagination because that's the only power I have got and I can't resist. What was the name of that disease spotted, aha! Glaucoma, that got me to this spot. Started like a blur then it covered everything remaining, not even a dot, You think being poor is the worst, try closing your eyes for a day and tell me you like it though. Blindness is not a course so don't treat me like a plague. I deserve some love, affection and need to play. In my darkness, I still got to be happy and joyful like a baby. Please never take advantage of my plight, it can happen to anyone at any day. [Sponsors]

Nice poem. Blinds are not as much as capable as us. But we should never think them as a burden.
You are so right my dear, we should love and care for them the little way we can
