Forgive These Painful eyes

Submitted by Barbara Writes on Thu, 2015-09-17 11:14

Eye hurts first thing this morning
Morning light has me in mourns
Black eye patch just won't do
Won't fit under my glasses, boohoo.

My better eye, not so pain free
It to hurts this very hour, help me
Taking the lead in the light
I can't deal with this blurred eye.

myself, I feel your pain. I don't have the blurriness of vision in that eye, because it is blind, but I'm on the receding end of an attack today. Good write!

The glaucoma eye saved from total blindness. I can see though it dim. It blind due to cataract. And pain from dry eye and or retina damage. Pending surgery.
My multiple sclerosis has the other good near sighted eye blurred. It's why I not here reading and commenting like I want bc I Just can't see through the blurry lol.
Glad I'm here now before the next ms episode.

Endurance show who what I'm made off and power of God keeps me focused on the hope in front of me.
