Vision

Stuck in a deep dark hole beneath the world. I hear foot steps. I see the bottom of people's shoes. I hear laughter, crying, yelling, sighs and gasps. I hear smiles in people's voices. Friendly and warmth. Very comforting. Makes me feel... It makes me feel. Not so bad. I can do it. But something inside of me wants to tell why? Why me ? I am cursed or am I blessed. Am I blessed with a power or a curse? I can't see the world but I can touch and feel and sense the world. I see through touching,smiling and listening. I have a gift. And I can see. I can see clearly. I can't see the corruption. I am happy I can't see with my eyes. Society is dreading and falling apart. Stand still. Close your eyes. And take a deep breath. And breathe. Breathe. What do you see ? A beautiful world. Peaceful. Beautiful and peaceful. Thank you for blessing me. Thank you. God I thank you.
