I want to talk about glasses.

How they help me have 20/20 vision,

But the world’s problems,

the ones bigger than me,

Blurred away

While my teenage problems,

The ones as small as sand,

Stood clearly in my peripheral view.

I want to talk about vision,

How vision is so expensive

It literally costs an arm and a leg,

But I would rather have a broken arm

Than broken eyes,

For you can easily heal broken bones.

I want to talk about cataracted eyes

Blinding us to the surplus of opportunities

Outside our comfort zones,

Obscuring our goals.

Becoming too prevalent in our generations.

Sight may be expensive

But it expands our minds.

So put on your glasses,

And get some clarity

Because the whole world is waiting to be seen.
