Love Seen With Blinded Eyes

Since the first time our eyes met I felt a connection This connection..something unseen yet all along I knew it was there Just as real as the raindrops I hear They fall to the muddy ground outside Sheets of it pounds, pours We lay tangled together, my head on your chest The rain drumming steadily like the beat of your heart in my ear Sweetening the loud thunder and erasing every single fear And as you hold me everything in this world disappears All I have is this moment right here So real that it almost brings me to tears Outside the light flickers through But it dissipates and falls silent And the only thing I feel in my heart is you Your presence inside me, surrounding me Until I am entirely consumed For a moment this world ceased to spin Seems surreal, like a dream I swear it’s too perfect I am afraid that when I wake you will not be there Is this just a cruel game? Because nobody ever said life would be fair Reality melts away, makes my breath catch How can fantasy and reality be the same? Beauty seen with mostly blinded eyes Eyes that have seen far too much hate and horror Eyes that forgot beauty still exists

Love is only seen with the heart....when hearts combine, they never part....part of each forever Lives with the other....other than that, what you have is simply a partner, not a Lover....Beautiful write maryann....;)
