Blinded By Love

 

Love is blind 

Messing with the mind 

I was too captivated 

And fell for its charms 

Disillussioned 

By its warmth

And perfection 

I ddnt see its venom  

Never felt its teeth 

Sink into my flesh 

I never realized 

I was under its spell 

Till the venom had entered 

My circulation 

I couldnt breath 

This sense of suffocation 

It gripped me so tightly 

All I could feel was nothing 

Not the warmth 

Of its tainted touch 

I felt no pain 

Simply mezmorized 

By its beauty 

Beauty that hid the truth 

Beauty that bore 

Lies and deceit 

As I stand here 

proclaiming defeat

I am a victim 

The emotional turmoil 

I still endure 

A constent remember 

Of loves power 

Infatuated by its gaze 

The pain I live through it 

Love hurts 

Yes, No, Maybe 

You swiftly walked into my life 

And left footprints 

That made me understand 

Love it blind and so am I
