Blinded

Love has no ears to hear no one's bullshit
It has no voice, but it calls who listens
It has no eyes to see your disfigurement
Nor does it have a mouth to critique the words you say.

Honey sweet when in heat
It makes you forget the time
You left your mate
To hook up with another dime

Money and glory covets its strength
You forget your offspring will need you at night
When you squat on the corner doing things just to pay your rent,
Then you're in a jail house, with a fat guy on your right.

Then you realize
Your life has no eyes, no ears, no voice,
Only a vision within, blinded by love.
