&quot;The most pathetic thing in the world is to see, and yet have no vision.&quot; - Hellen Keller<br /> &ldquo;Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don&#039;t matter and those who matter don&#039;t mind.&rdquo; - Dr. Seuss (Theodore Giesel)

Staring blankly
At the page
Words not absorbed
As they get lost
In the chaos
Of my mind

If only you could feel
The silent screams
Hidden in my eyes
Then your empathy
Could taste
The bittersweet confusion
That engulfs me
