Randomling ~ Blind, Profoundly Deaf and Numb

-----------------------------------------------------

Blind 

He wakes up to darkness
at the break of day.
Eyes wide open he listens
intently, as the cock crows. 

Deaf and Dumb

Raising her hand, palm facing me,
she looks me in the eyes,
closing ring and middle fingers:
She loves me!

Numb

She was not there.
Just a simple note...
Packed and left.
Never saw it coming...
Blind? Dumb? ... Numb!
