Is there anyone who has never been 'blind'? I don't think so...?

Oh, eyes...dear eyes...why have you forsaken me? you have done nothing but lie to me ...in fact, you are the lie Many days, evenings and nights you have looked at me with total compassion ...saying, I love you And will do so...not just today and tomorrow but forever...you have hurt me ...so bad that I no longer Want my eyes...nor do I want anyone else to possess them...oh, how I wish that I was blind...or should I be angry with myself ...because I am blind? copyright; Asa D Seeley/2009

We all have the choice to be blind or not. Many of us make the wrong choice but always we have the choice to correct our mistake - We have only to see it.
I do so love the tone of this marvellous literary portrait ...and ending with the question of self doubt - Inspirational!

This is intense and dramatic, but drama with proper control and that's what makes it worthwhile.
You are talented and gifted, Asa, and never never give up on life nor on writing; more, please, from your strong voice.

Looking...and seeing...are two very different things....as are listening and hearing. This is a poem that touches the heart on many levels.

A double meaning in this intense heart felt poem ! It draws the reader in and I can feel his pain! As humans we make mistakes and often do not see what is before our eyes.....M

This is very deep with emotions. Some can not see the forest, because of the tree's. A very good write and thank you.

Yes, our blindness comes, many times, from what we don't want to see, what we refuse to look at. It can be difficult to allow ourselves to SEE the truth.
Good job Asa.

...we can look, but it is our choice to see, the blind may see more than you and me.

No one will be more blind that the ones that don't want to see.
