Sightless Poetess
though sightless, she sees the world-
screens covering her optics reveal
a chimera universe.
she was just a wandering girl,
who craved to write an
inspiring verse.
blindfolded by deep obscurity,
wrapped in a heath of insecurity-
camouflaged by orbs of light,
held captive by her loss of sight.
now she sees the earth's creations,
feels each molecule with
her eyes-
she holds onto each revelation,
no more wearing an eyeless
disguise.
*true story about a poetess who was blind then regained her sight*
