In the name of love ,
Can I say I’ve become blind ?
For the heart and the mind
Both intertwine .
Everyday like a mirror
Held to my eyes ,
I turn to seek the reflection
In the depths of your honey glazed eyes.
I see the objection and pain
But also the wonder of sweet refrain .
I can’t hold it against you
For in this golden haze ,
I am allured to your charms .
The world is animated
With hues so beguiling,
That the heart pangs
For your love so vibrant
And the mind morphs
Into a lucid contentment .
What about long distance’s
Miscommunication?
Or lost in translation?
It’s center revolving around you ?
It only causes trouble,
But I can’t stay away from you ?
Love is not about who has it the hardest,
The one who waits or the one that makes you wait ?
The one who waits ,
Anxious for their beloved’s return
And the one who Is making the other wait
Perplexed for putting first life’s necessities
But both of them questioning each others loyalty ?
Sometimes you bend and sometimes you break
But isn’t that life’s journey ?
You never know what awaits .
We click ,we connect then we disconnect and maybe even reconnect.
Through each stage we should do our best
For in one short moment
You can triumph or regret .
Now then, do you see my debacle ?
For in shackles I’m bind
To see or not see ,
The mirror held up to me ?
For in those glints of your eyes
Hold a spark so divine .
What’s wrong and what’s right,
Seem to collide .
I can now say ,
Love truly is blind
Because we may see all the flaws
But we’re willing to be blind .
For in lives brevity
There is nothing better than
Love’s blissful eternity.
