To have or to loose

To have, or to loose

What a blessing to not have to see,
To loose shallow stereotype of the eyes,
To not worry if my necessary colors are in order,
Or if I am in proper comparison to others.
But can I forget the beauty of a woman,
Or the sunset our creator has painted,
Are the eyes a good thing or do they do nothing but bring us tears?

What a blessing to not have to hear,
There is a lot of commotion I could avoid,
And stomach curdling cries I wouldn’t have to comprehend.
But should I never hear another beautiful song,
Or perhaps listen to the birds in the morning,
Only we can truly understand what we hear in our habitat.

What a blessing not to feel,
If pain did not follow a vital blow, 
Or torture from lack of shelter.
But can I feel the warmth of the flame and it be okay,
Should an embrace or loving touch be forgotten?
But only you know how you feel.

What a blessing to loose taste,
As such anything could sustain,
And too much would never be partaken of.
But cant this be something I can enjoy,
Should I give away sweet things?
Can you enjoy what you eat or can you not?

What a blessing to loose my smell,
if I don’t have to smell death, and things of discuss.
But what about when I want to smell the flowers,
Do I enjoy beautiful fragrances honestly?
Or is even reality that we can comprehend them?

These things are about the five senses,
But are these the only things we comprehend our world with?
Can we sell out our hearts with only facts?
So now I will ask you personally,
Are these things a blessing to take in your perspective of the world?
Or a curse you wish you could only loose because they remind you how bad everything truly is?
