I Wish I Was Blind Poem by Reagan A. Latumbo

I wish I was blind,
so I can't look at your face crying,
so I can't see you weeping,
so I can't stare at your bodies aching.

I wish I was blind,
not to witness the other's agony,
not to observe people's face so lonely,
not to spy on politicians things so cowardly.

I wish I was blind but I can't help myself feel your pain.
I wish I was blind but my mind said I will forever lonely.
I wish I was blind but it will only show how weak I am, dying in vain.
I wish I was blind but I can no longer see God's creation until eternity!
