Shani Fassbender Poet Sijo

Feeling

My love does not see my tears fall, nor does he see my smile grow
His hands and heart alone seek my happiness and loneliness
Sightless since birth, he views the world through his touch and emotions


Dedicated to all those who are blind, yet still see the world in so many ways...

For the Contest "A Short Poem, Please"
