I'll walk through life,
with my eyes squeezed shut,
blindly hoping,
to fall into your arms.
I'll be blind for love,
if love is blind,
if me and you can be,
if you'll be blind too.
I'll live each day,
with my eyes squeezed shut,
hoping to bump into you,
somewhere in my darkness.
And only if I live,
with my eyes squeezed shut,
will I ever find you,
because love is blind.

Someone once taught me that it doesn't matter what other people think of you as long as you like yourself. That's what I live by.

Nice write...I liked this bunches!
"I'll be blind for love,
if love is blind"

You wouldn't worry about what people thought about you if you knew how seldom they did.

Impressive, Allysa.
"I'll be blind for love,
if love is blind,
if me and you can be,
if you'll be blind too."
Love is very blind... I really liked this. I can connect with what you're saying, because those thoughts sound so familiar. Very similar to my own. Wonderful work. I enjoyed this!

I really liked that one. Maybe if you just wait and let it come to you, that true love will eventually find you... Great piece, I liked it a lot!

"Hoping to bump into you,
somewhere in my darkness"

These two lines made me relate to the poem so much, I really enjoyed this poem because I understand the level of what you are saying completely and I'm sure your love will bump into you sometime soon!! *hugs*

I thought you wrote this fine, but I don't agree with the main concept of the poem, but oh well. It was well written. Good job.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.
