Amidst darkness and silence
By certifyd_morning_rusher
When I came out here in this world,
a shrill cry went out from my rosy lips –
a sound innate for babies.
These blue eyes could see only white lights,
and various sounds keep coming inside my pinkish ears.
However these abilities will be taken away
from me, just in a matter of time.
One year later, during the cold night in Alabama,
My body temperature rise above the normal ones.
The freezing weather worsen my condition, everyone
feared on my near death.
But the fever subsided, thought it was a miracle,
though it’s not — it is the start of a miserable journey,
I lost my sight, I lost my hearing, and I lost everything!
But my parents never lost their hopes.
They searched for people that could help me through.
Anne Sullivan came, and became a part
of my dark world.
She teach me patiently, spelling out words in
my hands.
Doll, cake, and then water. Names, things and a whole lot more.
Long time though, I managed to comprehend with
all the things that surrounds me.
I made it able to read, feeling the dots with my
resolute fingers.
That’s an achievement, but there’s a lot more.
The determination in my heart is as hard as a rock.
So I went into college, still beside me is Ms. Anne, all the way.
I finished my studies; I’ve reached my dreams and aspirations.
With strong will, strength, and love, I went on—my mentor
as my inspiration.
I’d join foundations for the blind and write books of encouragement
Being a hope for others, is nonetheless, the fulfillment of my
my life—this life amidst darkness and silence.
