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.
