this cracked lens
sees the world in a new way.
a unique perspective of the world,
one that no one else will ever experience.
this cracked lens
sees the world in a broken way.
a perspective that is disjointed and blurred,
something no one should have.
this cracked lens
has a secret world hidden behind it.
a new view of the world
and the problems we face.
this cracked lens
has been opened up to the hardships it must face
while being seen as different.
the cruel, harsh reality we live in.
this cracked lens
was left abandoned when it needed help.
the pleas for a better life ignored
and shoved to the side while called Dramatic.
this cracked lens
has been given new opportunities.
ones you would never believe existed
nor would you think would be within the reach of something so disjointed.
(this poem is about how I view the world as someone who has a severe vision impairment and how I view the world and what I've learnt)
