Sajdah Al-Riyami Poet Blank verse

When Its All a Blur

I forgot my contacts
Under the tip of my toes

I forgot my sight
Along my life's road

I forgot how it felt
When warmth laid upon me

I forgot what earnest was
What it was like to see good

I forgot my mom’s womb
Is it where I’m from?

I forgot what an apple taste like
I won’t have another one

I forgot emotions, expressions
It’s all a blur...

Wait!
In that blur...
I think I just so the sun.

Hyle Chu June 29, 2009 at 1:29 PM Like the 2nd stanza. Like it all, actually. What if we stopped doing the things we do. That would be a huge withdrawl fest. I don't think anyone can handle a change that big.
