Love is Blind

a poem by Altaaf Jaffer

When I loved you, we both had fun
I’m sure I really loved just once
Holding on to a cocktail of hopes ‘n’ dreams
In tranquility, my heart gently weeps ‘n’ screams

Used to be dazzled by your love always
I easily believed every word you said
Couldn’t see beyond your flashy smile
Never imagined you’d leave me behind

And I believed all the sweet lies
Babe, it’s true that LOVE IS BLIND
‘Coz my loving eyes could never see
That you were making a fool of me
