BLINDED BY LOVE

Just because you love someone

does not mean being with them

is wise

 

Wouldn't it be wonderful and simple 

if that were true

 

It's best to open your eyes

and guard your heart

walk carefully 

and know...

 

The only guarantee

in life is that

it begins 

and ends

 

Everything in-between

is a story you have

limited control over

 

Do not be blinded by love

wisdom should be your guide.

So true! Sometimes at the fork in the road we get stabbed no matter which path we choose. I am trying to learn to keep my eyes open so I can remember my way back
and not get lost on the path I chose.

I guess this is the old dichotomy between going with your heart or your head. There are sometimes that which ever way we go we seem to get it wrong.
Anyway good poem Lynn
