Listen to poem:

Blind Dating

They call it blind because you're unable to see
If their good looking, broke or have all their teeth
Taking alot of time to get to know the inner person 
Sharing common idiosyncrasies and other emotions
This person makes you so happy until it's unreal
From these long conversations good is how you feel
For the first date you're wondering what to wear
All your past blind dates were total nightmares
Blind dates have proven that beauty is skin deep
You can put a face to the voice when you finally meet
You're worried if you would meet their expectation
Constant thoughts of them has build up anticipation
You're hoping this person is what you're looking for
Someone you can be with leaving you wanting more
If their disappointed they leave you there waiting 
It seems like a waste of time to start off blind dating

Thank you for the compliment. I experienced a couple of scenarios of this year's back. Thank you also for the compliment on reciting. It's the worse for me to be honest lol. But as Poetry Soup brought out how else would you know how the poem should be read...
