But will you

sonnet

 

 

 

 

But Will You?

 

When you’re in love you cannot see.

The faults and flaws though obvious

 that others see so easily.

 You’re blind to the reality,

quite happily oblivious

To what you do not want to see

 but later on when passion dies.

What really makes you furious

 is the fact you closed your eyes.

To all the little faults you saw

which seemed to you ridiculous.

 Though now you don’t think so any more.

You would not listen to advice

But vow next time you will think twice

This is so very true. The heart will over power the brain
and that is not necessairly a bad thing if it can continue
to do so, but as most know it does not always continue.
Love ... such a small word for such a complex feeling.
I love to read things that make me crawl within and do
a self inventory and this did just that.
Thank you for share'n this.
Great write
Hugs

Very good and very true; I believe that a lot of teenagers are willfully ignorant of the faults of the other . . . causes pain. 'Tis better to look at people true.

I wish all teenagers would read this and understand......
My only question is in the below line:
Though now you don't think so any more.

Should any and more be together : anymore?
Just wondering
