After I'm done doing all my tasks,
I just stare blankly at the laptop screen for hours at a time.
It doesn't have any games in it,
It's just a screen,
A blue screen.
The objects in my surroundings start to lose color,
And it's not the device's fault.
It just happens when you stare at something for a while.
This is somehow so entertaining.
Even as the electricity loses its spark,
It was the only appliance to remain turned on.
I never once blinked, as my eyes were always open all those hours.
To some unfortunate circumstances, I went blind faster than any other person would have.
Now, I can finally focus on other things.
I did this to set a good example with my friends,
Because there are times when you need to go down to bring someone into light.
