Through His Eyes

Disabled in sight

Yet always up for a fight

Her strength and determination

Convinced him a life worthy

 

He met her

And fell in love

Painted beautiful pictures

Promised her

One day she would see the world

His hand in hers

 

He will never forget

That heavy impact

Blood dripping down her forehead

Her body limped

Her hands, out of reach

His consciousness left him

 

Trapped in a space

A place he could not escape

He saw her

Revealing her hazel brown orbs

Pupils shifting and sharing gazes

A smile on her face

 

Her hands, however, still out of reach

Him, she still could not see

Cradled himself into reality

Knowing the truth to be...

 

That just maybe

She could see

That world he promised her

A colourful life so fine...

 

                       ...through his eyes.
