Disable Sobbing

They say: we, humans, were born for reasons

then blinded for a reason was I?

or, muted for a reason was I?

intricately, not to see the beauty of the world's wonder

not to sing the melody of sweet rhythmic dulcet,

yet precious, perfect unique design

they call I am, God's special one.

I can't see I am, still

I can't say I am thus, still

I can't completely sense I am.

I move, yes, with freedom, a figment, though

yet imprisoned in an eggshell, my deadend

grave I had never.
