The Seeing Glasses`

All my life they were blind


                            went around with no purpose

stumbling with every step


                                             ghosting the longing words in the November air,
thinking too much about what to change



the rope was burned into their skin

   
                              until they let go



                and allowed themselves to fall

I really like the part when you said about letting go. It really intensified the mood in the poem, and left you at a point where you are asking more and more questions.
