LOVE IS NOT BLIND
there is someone
who understands you,
who sees you
even more than you can see yourself

his eyes are like clear mirrors
reflecting to you
the you he loves and sees

and though you are afraid at first,
your fears are vanquished
and you are able to see through his eyes
what you were afraid to see

love is not blind after all
for love sees more
love sees what no other sees

and looking through those eyes
you finally discover the person within

you discover
the one he loves
the one whose beauty
reaches deep within his soul

you discover
and you see yourself
and you love the more
the one who opened up your own eyes

the only one
who is able to reach your heart

I've titled this poem "Love is not Blind" because I believe that Love, more than the common notion of blinding us, opens up our eyes to that kind of beauty we've never seen before.  If love is blind, then it is blind only to our past blunders and faults, for love keeps no record of wrongs.

    Dear Jocelyn,
    This poem truly touched my heart for it came on the very right moment. I have just prayed and I believe the Lord has sent His assurance through this poem. It’s really assuring to know there’s someone who can see me more than myself…and loves me for who I am.

    Hi, Jocelyn!
    What a nice poem!
    I’m so glad that you sometimes step by my blog!
    Since you’ve left me comment on my new blog, I guess you were able to log in. I checked the link. All seems to be Ok.
    I am still testing wordpress. There are things that I like, and things that Blogger does better.. Oh, where is that perfect platform?….
    I see that you’ve started a webzine.
    Once I get to know wordpress better, I’m definetely going to have a webzine there (they allow different pages)
    Anyway, it was good to hear from you!
    Ella

    "Tell them that no soul that has called
    upon My mercy has been disappointed
    or brought to shame."

    I cannot punish even the greatest sinner if he makes an appeal to My compassion, but on the contrary, I justify him in My unfathomable and inscrutable mercy.
