A Love Poem Poem by P.R. Prosper

Love is not blind; love is blinding
As in
It makes you ignore all the flaws
Of your loved one that would otherwise cause
You to lose your lunch like a seal escaping Jaws

Love is timeless
Or maybe it isn't and it just seems that way
Because love makes you mindless

Whether or not you're not crooked
You can't think straight
Love gets you hooked like captain fish bait
Any scheme borne of dreams
No matter how implausible
Love will encourage them
So, instantly they're possible

Love dramatizes desire
Swan dives into depression
It's great when it's given
And sucks when not returned
True love is true, but love can be a liar
Love is a teacher at the heart of every lesson

Love is boundless, and sometimes
Love can wound you up
And help you unwind
Love can get you in a bind
But love isn't binding
Love isn't blind; love is just blinding
