Blind


Living a life of being blind

Not fully, but partially in one eye

It happened at an early age

At the age of nine.

 

Walking around,

Having a positive mind

Is an uphill battle,

A mountain to climb.

 

Taking a step forward

After being set back, 

Is harder then thought

When confidence is what I lack.

 

When you get hit, blind-sided

Go on with your life,

like it has already been decided

 

I will continue to strive and try

Even when vision doesn't comply

Living a life of being blind

Will not prevent me from being alive
