Eyes Blind Love Heart

As I have learned to my cost That love truly is as blind as they say When it is lost and the heart must it's penance pay Rather then gouge my eyes out now before I ever begin or wish to fall in love again And offer me a guide dog that I may love instead of another lover or partner Who will most probably in the end leave me blinded in every way To the cost one must eventually have to pay If they do choose one day to steal that love away And leave one in a total state of fear they fear that they may not wish to love or give their heart away again As the pain of a broken heart is far worse than the fate of going blind it having one's eyes gouged out If you love a certain someone so much The very thought of losing them or spending time apart Makes you unable to make it through your day to day
