Visual Acuity

 Visual Acuity

Random thoughts made so many images residual

I heard the hum of a bee, paid no attention to its sight

Ignoring daytime 

What happens if we cease to dream,

-Nothing will be left to imagine

What happens if we give up on possibility 

-Nothing will be left to fathom

What happens if we no longer know who we are,

-We will be slave to humanity 

What happens if we are no longer invisible,

-We must have gone to meet our creator 

What happens if we are no longer inaudible

-We must have  become deaf then 

What happens if we no longer appreciate taste,

-Then they is no need to eat

What happens if we no longer feel another’s touch,

-Then we are dead to our senses

The jouney of Life

 Walking in the shadows of my dreams

The pressure of my troubled mind

Trying to find an elusive answer

Sun light take away my dark cloud 

Removing my mind from doubt and gloom

The picture of my dream I now firmly hold

Working hard to make the dream a reality 

 And a voices start to speak not possible 

Then I start to think if I will make it through the night

I lie on the floor in a foetal position

Anxiously waiting for that small still voice to speak 

Dragging the unbelief of my life out of my room

My breathing was slow

That I could feel the humidity of the air around me 

Suddenly I start to feel the fire of possibility stening up passion in me

The boundless energy of life flowing through me

I know I can make it 

I know I will survive 

No matter what comes my way 

I will surly win
