What I do not see, cannot hurt me.
I am fearful I might bump my head.
As, I am walking through life blind.
I tap along with my cane,
Embracing the darkness.
Expectations of help, dead.
Feeble assistance, declined.
I no longer hear also.
This is how things are designed.
Cocooned in silient darkness.
Comforting, yet so confined.
I have to much fear,
To look, and to hear.
What I see just blows my mind.
I choose to keep my eyes closed.
And my ears covered.
The World is just so Unkind.

JD.,
a poem which so many will be able to relate to. I enjoyed the subtle rhyming and the careful choice of words.
Thank you for this
Keith
