Hope You Get Your Eyesight Back Soon

I can only conclude,
That you are suffering from temporary blindness ,
And that you will recover your eyesight,
Before you find yourself alone for real and for keeps.

I pray every day that the recovery will give you,
Insight into the fact,
That others are close by,
With the same needs as you,
The same headaches as you,
The same excuses as you,
And who need help just as much as you, 
But still manage  to recognise that there are others in the same boat,
And are frantically manning the pumps,
To keep us all afloat.

Not blindly rushing about,
Unaware of the damage they are doing,
To structural integrity,
Or the potential cost in time, money, and lives,
Their blindness can cause. 

Looking forward to a time when you,
See us,
The way we see you,
As the alternative,
Is downright heart-breaking.
