Blinded By Love ' I Only Have Eyes For You ' Poem by Danny The Dreamer Boyd

Blinded By Love ' I Only Have Eyes For You '

Rating: 5.0


A love so strong, A love so true,
Never has been seen before, no one can deny.
An accident happened and his eyesight blew:
No more could he see her smile, hereby.

The realm of darkness, he went into.
Caught out of guard, so she did cry,
With only one thing in mind to do:
That is finding him another eye.

Around the world she flew;
Spread her wings and soared above the sky.
An ad of a fortune she did strew;
Yet no donators, she wondered why!

For giving up on searching, she did rue,
Thought there is nothing money can't buy.
'Cheer up darling, why are you so blue?
I'm only blind, I'm not going to die.'

Time passed, but there was always that issue.
Her ego, she did get by:
'I Only Have Eyes For You! '
Waved at her vision goodbye.

Her sacrifice forever will due;
Repaying her, he did try.
As his love for her always grew,
Yet sometimes his eye went dry.

'Don't feel sorry, you are of great value,
And I did this as you're my joy supply;
Not only eyes, but my heart sees you too! '
‘The sound of silence' was his reply.

Happiness for him, she did pursue;
To the lowest low and the highest high.
Selfless, that was her virtue,
As her lights went off for aye.

A well articulated encapsulation of thoughts nicely penned to capture the essence of the poem and the poet's convictions. A lovely narrative poem. Thanks for sharing. Please read my poem MANDELA - THE IMMORTAL ICON.
