The boy with no eyes

He viewed the world with a different sight

He saw no colors red, green, black, or white

He saw no people, just heard textured voices

Went to church, loved to hear the gospel choir rejoices

Through the touch of others faces, many hardships could be seen

With his hands he felt the weight of burdens, he felt the hands of time

Once he felt a passion so rare for human kind

He could see it in his eyes it was love at first sight

The boy felt it in his heart as he viewed a shapeless world

Knowing this is right, knowing lust brings love

Knowing not what he looks like

A monster bringing forth fright?

Strange sightless creature

Or a shining knight?

The boy asks the girl “What do you think of my appearance?”

She shrugs and motions he can’t hear him

The boy with no eyes fell in love with the girl with no ears
