Through Sabrina's Eyes (Single)

Sabrina's Eyes is a deeply emotional poem told from the perspective of a seventeen-year-old girl living with a serious chronic illness. Through her eyes, readers witness the quiet fears, grief, and uncertainty that come with facing a potentially shortened life while watching loved ones struggle with the possibility of loss.

The poem explores themes of mortality, family love, medical hardship, depression, and the emotional burden of being the one everyone worries about. While surrounded by parents and a brother who love her unconditionally, the narrator becomes painfully aware of the sadness and fear hidden behind their smiles. More than a story about illness, *Sabrina's Eyes* is a reflection on the weight of being cherished, the fear of becoming a memory, and the heartbreaking realization that those who love us often suffer alongside us.

Written in 2017, the poem captures the loneliness, vulnerability, and complex emotions of a young person confronting both physical illness and the emotional realities that accompany it.
