Blind Music
Her fingertips swiftly dance
Across the Ivory keys
With only darkness to see
Sound brings her to light
Music fills her aching heart.
It consumes her soul completely
With a beautiful lifting tune
She is now in another place
That gives her wholesome peace
She can dance, she can sing
Without single disturbance
The piano is her own escape
She lives safely through a song
Blindness has no boundary
The tune reveals it all
She lifts her fingers and stands
The song plays on in her mind
Happiness, content, complete
She softly walks away from it
The piano silently waits
While moments carry her through
Until the next time, she fully lives again
