Seeing Without Seeing
A Marvel Comic Character Inspiration

I was once among many,
I could remember in my head what it was like
Seeing all the shades of colour and I would tend to wonder how the world could end up so nice,
It happened when I was a kid,
I had saved a man's life,
I got him out the way but chemicals entered my eyes and my vision paid the ultimate price,
My sight turned to black,
I used to remenise a lot,
till you appreciate the little things like those floating rainbow dots,
A decade and a half later,
A lot of things have changed,
having 'sight' was an illusion, an unnoticed contusion and losing sight made my senses superhuman,
I can feel the electricity in the walls
The walls feel like plasma balls
Touch is so sensitive that if i just hold you, should your blood flow seem odd I'd definitely mention it
Hearing is impeccable but scary
While at home it always keeps me alive
reason why is because if I focus enough your breathing tells me where you hide,
Cookings created a phobia of sort,
It makes eating out so scary for me,
When I eat I taste everything that is so good but also things that shouldn't be
My sense of smell reveals everything
the ambrosial and putrid,
I could smell the food you ate hours ago cause your breath couldn't hide it
So yes I may be blind
What I'm saying is the truth
You can see through your eyes and enjoy the colors but I think I 'see' more than you

I’ve begun to take it seriously since and I love to make fiction stories and poetry. I do enjoy my horror stories and try to make people feel something from what I write. “If you don’t feel anything emotionally, it’s not good enough”.😝
