Love Sees With Eyes Wide Open

It is said that Love is blind 
But Love isn't,you will find 
It sees every imperfection and flaw 
And yet it still remains in such awe 

It doesn't demand change of who one is 
Love accepts all the qualities that are his 
Yet it will help a person to flourish and grow 
To find the person that Love already knows 

Love may witness missteps and mistakes 
Yet it will not abandon,leave,or forsake 
It sees mistakes as part of the Masterpiece 
That's why Love endures, it does not cease 

Love doesn't dwell on all the faults and wrongs 
It knows that is not where it's attention belongs 
Love sees with eyes wide open 
To say Love is blind,one is misspoken 

        -C.A.Saputo xoxo
