Blind <br />from birth <br /> <br />the Present <br />exists <br /> <br />only as a darkness <br />with voices <br /> <br />floating <br />on the surface <br /> <br />of <br />it. <br /> <br />Each eye <br />oddly a different colour. <br /> <br />One glows green <br />one blooms a brilliant blue <br /> <br />hidden behind <br />dark glasses <br /> <br />which when <br />he removes them <br /> <br />looks alien <br />dangerous <br /> <br />and perhaps <br />he is. <br /> <br />Green eye <br />sees only <br /> <br />(the Past) . <br /> <br />Blue eye <br />only sees <br /> <br />the (Future) <br /> <br />Seeing nothing...yet... seeing all. <br /> <br />Time visits him <br />& he sees <br /> <br /> <br />what is to be <br />what is...past. <br /> <br />Only the Present <br />exists <br /> <br />as a <br />darkness <br /> <br />voices floating <br />on the surface <br /> <br />of <br />it. <br /> <br />Tears in his eyes.<br /><br />Dónall Dempsey<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/different-coloured-tears-for-the-only-one/
