Wonder

As I look into his eyes
and he into mine, I begin to ask myself “why”
Why do we take so long to find love
Could it be that our eyes are too blind to see the true beauty of a being
Or are our hearts too weak to acknowledge what our eyes are blinded into seeing
Cowardly you
wreak havoc on unforeseen hearts
trying to tear true love apart
because you left love in the dark
Fragile hearts try desperately to mold themselves back into true form
by patching damaged veins once scorned
