Love Is Blind

It's a tale as old as time

And sadder than any movie or rhyme

A women claims there aren't any words,

that she can't describe what he does to her

She exclaims full of pride

over joyed and starry-eyed

He made her feel like the moon to his sun

To him she was perfect

she thought he was worth more than diamonds or jewels

He was charming and dashing for the eyes to behold

His words were webbed in pure gold

knew just what to say

He was the light to her darkest day

Then it all changed like the beginning of a storm

He was no longer nice and no longer warm

To her, there wasn't a description that does him true justice

her friend would beg her to hear their pleas

They would say "trust us it isn't as good as it seems"

she would just claim he made her day brighter

she was a fighter

It was More than just the gifts

"People don't understand he's the sun to my moon"

All her friends could think of were the major fights

specifically, the one that left the bruises last June

He's much more than the jacket he offered when she was cold

she trusted and loved him

He promised to love her as they grew old

Without him she was nothing

“He means more to me than a pretty face

And more than the confines of any race”

He meant more to Her than anyone can truly see

He broke my heart

He meant too much for her to flee

She stayed

He schemed and played

He began to mean more than anyone else

In truth, He meant more than life itself

As he blamed her

shamed her

Berated and interrogated

she stayed

she just couldn't let go

Still, he means more to me than friends or foe

He meant more than he'll ever know

He became her light and darkness

He was her strength and weakest

"He is my sun and all the stars"

She wasn't sure she deserved a love more functional

One that didn't leave scars

Through the love and all the pain

Through the darkness and all the rain

By his side she remain
