A Blind girl

A Blind girl

A Poem by Deepika
"

In the voice of a girl who looses her pleasure of sight one day..

"

I hope my fave red dress didn’t fade after laundry,

I believe the moon is still focused over my territory,

I wish I could have a glimpse of my crush somewhere,

Mirror no more can lie to me that I look all fair

 

Where does my once admired eye now stare?

Did the sun loose his charm & hide behind the sea forever?

Cockroach can no more scare me with her long antenna,

Dark mascara has penetrated beyond my eyelids till my retina

 

Don’t use glycerin, I no more can see your tears honey,

Neither sympathize me, I just don’t need any,

Glittering things still don’t fall under my list of fallacy,

There’s a deeper pain hidden in me than the fire of jealousy

 

I might have no sight, but definitely a vision,

Pumping the red blood is still my heart’s mission,

Ears have become smarter to the waves that it receive,

My skin urges for the warmth that’ll never deceive!

I like the idea behind this very much! People take sight for granted, they don't realise how much it can reduce your quality of life to be unable to see, forcing you to dwell entirely on your own thoughts with no visual stimulation to distract yourself. It's a very strong piece and the irony behind it most definitely isn't lost.
Great poem, well done!
