Blind I can't feel a thing I hear nothing Am I losing hold of myself? Did something happen? Am I dead? I had to ask And then slowly I hear voices Voices of people trying to reach me Voices that I often recognize so easily But too many voices I can't seem to identify which is who's And so slowly I can feel Feel the warm touch of caring people And by then I realize That I could finally hear That I could finally feel And by then I also realize That I am now blind. -nsh-
