IF NO SIGHT HAD I


   Suddenly, so suddenly, my eyes, they could no
  Longer see,

  Where did everything go, what am I to become, 
  I'm blind.

  Darkness, only darkness can be my world now, 
  To be afraid,

  Never again, a sunny day, the night visits' me 
  Repeatedly.

  If no sight had I, there would be many new 
  Thoughts and adventures,

  The wind I would hear as I did before, my 
  Imagination would create

  Pictured scenes of what It was doing.


  Music would still be heard, although my mind 
  Could see the story

  A song might tell with Its' words.


  A television show now only to be heard, no picture 
  Book to go with,

  A kiss could still be placed upon her lips', no sight 
  Or sound do I need.

  Feelings' here are what will be needed, and a little 
  Sense of touch,

  If no sight had I, life would be just fine.
