I See You

Blinded by Love

You were a Beautiful Sight

Once the Dream was over

You were a dangerous sight

You expected me to be like the rest

To close you out

To view you as a Villain, after the fact

But I’m not like any other you’ve ever known

I once saw you through the Heart

And it was impossible to see any fla’s in you

Impossible to read you while completely taken by you

You’ve taught me a lot

In the short time we shared

One being

Don’t make somebody a priority in your life

When your only an option in theirs

Now, no longer blinded by the Heart

I see you with my eye’s

Now I see

What you’ve told me from the beginning

A women still learning herself

And the ways of the Heart and Life

Your Heart doesn’t know

Just yet

How to let somebody in

That’s why in the past

Or present

It was impossible to focus on just one Heart

At a time

Easier to push away

Than to let in

Easier to sneak around

Another’s bed

Than to stay

At just ones side

Options gave you control

Leaving a trail of tears and angry Hearts

In your path

You needed to see your options

Feel the difference

No wrong in that

We all have to learn

Just don’t agree

With your methods

There’s better ways

But your still a student of life

Learning the ways of

Love

You’ve got forever to find Love

And you act like it

I hope I’ve been able to teach you

At least one valuable lesson

About Love

Through this all

At least you have

My Gratitude

My Respect

My Care

My Friendship

And a piece of my Heart

That last one

Being of course the most valuable

Take Care

Happy Trails

Through your Urban Jungles

Awww! Your poems always fill me this longing as if I'm standing on a prairie's edge and see nothing but grass and empty skies until it hurts to breathe. You have a way with words Cowboy!

I like this, especially Don't make somebody a priority in your life/When your only an option in theirs. A painfully learned lesson.

thank you lisa

Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
