Spectacles

Blinking dazedly, she drifts through the roads Sometimes a light sparkles and then it fades Her eyes view the world Like an astigmatic sees the lights on the street What does she want? The clear young girl lost her sight. Clarity moved away for hazy views. A prescription so dearly needed. Hospital ques seem endless. The ultimate view seems forever beyond her grasp And thus she loses her balance. Arms flailing to catch on and feel, She wonders if this is all her life would be.
