A world full of light

24th August, u sat on your bed

Trying to reach out,

I raised my hands

But you searched in the other direction.

You looked here and there

Looking a little lost

A whimper falling from your lips,

A tear falling from your eyes

Yet I didn't understand why.

You blinked rapidly,

I came forward,

I said hey

And you flinched

Yet I couldn't stop

I said "Hazel?"

You said "who?"

I felt my heart break

Yet I continued,

A lot of light in your face

But all you saw was darkness.

It took me a while to understand,

That your vision was gone

Yet I kept trying to hold your gaze.

Was this what they went through?

Every single day?

Was this what they felt?

Did this always stay?

A world full of light,

Yet full of darkness.

Another oath to the blind

Let us raise our voice,

Help them walk,

Use their sticks to fight

A world full of light,

Yet full of darkness
