Forever blind

Because i was disobeyed mom
by watching too closely to that bomb

Television has taken my sight
in a few years there will be no light

i am going more and more blind day by day
there is nothing i can do let alone say

i'll never be able to drive a car
i feel like it's an invisible scar

one day it will be lights out for all time
if i had perfect vision,that would be sublime

it's funny how the hardest lessons are learned firsthand
maybe science will help me with my desperate stand

till then all i can do is wait
but i know blindness is at the gate

one of these days i will grow blind, but till i do i will use my sight to help others. blindness will not get me down even though it is at my door
