Seeing without Eyes

This poem is intended for an audience between the ages of 12 to 18. The purpose of this poem is not only to tell but also to help the reader visualize what the concept behind it is and make them feel like they are not only reading but also experiencing this given event.


When our eyes are old and start to lie
We must find different ways to learn to see
Some use dreams because that way, they can see everything in their point of view
While other stick to reality and adapt their other senses to do what their eyes could not
They use the feeling of their hands to guide them to the truth
While the nose’s keen sense of smell to show them the way
Then the ears play their part by catching the sound waves and warning of any danger
Even without the amazing vision of our eyes, one can still find many ways to see
For, after all, we are made to adapt and that is how our body is meant to be.
