Since Birth

she lays blind since birth
tears of sorrow never fall
he is always there
 
she sleeps peacefully
while she lays in bed at night
he sits by her side
 
she opens her eyes
to the warm rays of sunlight
as she stretches her arms
 
a deep breath taken
the aroma of breakfast
morning has arrived
 
this will be her last
sickness has overtaken
her small weak body
 
the afternoon sun
reaches its peak in the sky
and begins to fall
 
the sun's warm rays fade
the aroma of supper
drifts into the night
 
death has come knocking
tears of sorrow never fall
life awaits her death
 
standing face to face
his eyes are more beautiful
than by her bedside
 
life was always there
tears of joy begin to fall
she's seen all since birth
