Change in Sight


Change the way eyes see; nowadays people do not see the true beauty of life

How gorgeous the sky looks, or the view of your backyard

Everyday we are all missing out on the little stuff, instead we are all facing a screen of colors

Being absorbed by the circulation of media

Secluding the real beauty

Step outside, out in the place you've been ignoring

Start paying attention

Notice grass grow, notice your beautiful face

Make smiles forms that your eyes will see

Notice the dimples your crush has, notice this poem

How many birds have you seen today, or the haircut she got

Notice that person who has noticed you since freshman year

Look into eyes and see truth

Your eyes hold dear treasure of memories

Absorb the images that are being formed right before you

Eyes deserve to see whatever is out there

A newborn child is opening their eyes right now, seeing for the very first time

That amazing feeling of sight

Open your eyes to life.
