Love is blind

My greatest fear of all:
falling in love.
Once you fall in love,
everything seems very unrealistic.
The grass seems more green,
the skies are brighter and more beautiful,
life itself appears to be perfect.
One is literally floating on a soft cloud of fantasy,
where everything is possible,
that you feel you are a superhero,
that love can do it all,
because we think love is all we need,
(and maybe it is all we need).
Once one falls in love,
tell me,
what crazy, stupid, ignorant things do we do?
Of course, love is a beautiful feeling,
sort of magical and super powerful,
when one feels he or she can't live without their one true love.
It is clearly understandable the state of mind one is in.
But,
what about all the times your partner abused you?
Whether it was emotionally or physically? 
How many women have stayed with their partners after she got struck?
Did she stay with him because she is in love?
Or because she hopes that doesnt ever occur again?
Or does she remember all the happy and satisfying memories?
Why does she even go back with that f*****g b*****d?!
why?!
Because love is blind

Nice poem. from experience I can tell you that love is indeed blind and even I had to face that reality that my own mind was cloud with infatuation. I think even though I can see past the love blindness now I still have trouble deciding between staying with love or with reality because lets face it, its better to have love than none at all. At least I hope so because I'm tired of living on the other side and now that I've found it I'm never going back. because that other side without love is cold, dark, and lonely.
But if anyone ever tries to hurt you or a friend that you know just let me know and I'll have a "talk" with them and make sure that they know not to mess with you again or they'll hear from me and we'll have another "talk".

Yes this is very true love is blind.
I wish i knew why women stick by men that are like this with them.
I think its because they dont know any better or they just cant accept the thought of being alone.
You cant change people no matter what if the guy has a problem then he has to
willing accept that he has one and go get help because if he doesnt then the same thing
will happen over and over again. The best thing to do is just let him go move on he is
not worth the abuse yes its hard to let go but you need to think of yourself first and if
your not happy then move on. You need to love yourself first before you can love anyone else.

Thanks for sharing.

Best wishes.
