Love was foolish, but it wasn't blind |

The memories are echoes trapped in a stillness I can recall the names of those who wove the web but their faces are vague dreams dancing across the tip of my tongue sometimes I lie in dark places unable to contain the voices and images that remind me fate is an entanglement presented aesthetically for a span of time illusion was reality and we gazed into eyes that exposed the other’s reflection love was foolish but it wasn’t blind we were aware soul mates and ever afters didn’t exist but for a while we pretended as if they did |

Great poem. Especially the imagery of looking into the eyes and seeing the reflection. Truly looking into the soul. Without that there is no true love, whether foolish or blind. Thanks for sharing "The only gift is a portion of thyself" - Ralph Waldo Emerson |
