Love Blind

A lined faces shows extreme experience??

A heavy paunch, a hard working life??

A young soul, always shallow??

On the crust falls the shadow of your eye,

You perceive, you think whatever you like

But then is it always true?

For all you may know

The second look might change the lies.

Though mature, experienced and sweet

Was what they thought of me

Yet, a nincompoop I had always been

Senseless, stupid and gullible,

Who would run toward wherever she found love

A parasite, with a never ending hunger,

For love, care and affection

And that was where the opportunists cam,

Gave me their poison mixed with fake love

And i thanked my stars for

Blessing me with angels

But my eyes wouldn’t open

And I’ll hide in a nutshell

Too scared to face reality

And fight off my insecurities.

I wasn’t strong, just tolerant

‘cos I let the blood flow, tears flood my eyes

And maybe one day,

I’ll become a whore

And be reduced to a slave,

For what I thought was love

And let myself be betrayed.
