Love is blind<\/p>\n
Love conceals the inner feelings<\/p>\n
The childish<\/p>\n
The selfish<\/p>\n
Need for all to be about ego<\/p>\n
Instead trust in spirit<\/p>\n
To light the way<\/p>\n
Bring forth the messages<\/p>\n
And the lessons to be taught<\/p>\n
Love unselfishly<\/p>\n
Is not all about oneself<\/p>\n
What is the material gain?<\/p>\n
But more what is the emotional bond?<\/p>\n
The sharing, the joining of two separate spirits<\/p>\n
Alas this is not so in some cases<\/p>\n
There is duplicity surrounding the union<\/p>\n
Unclear messages, confusion<\/p>\n
Selfish intention awaiting manifestation<\/p>\n
Hurt, pain and manipulation<\/p>\n
Selling oneself short<\/p>\n
Shutting out the world to hide the shame<\/p>\n
To become invisible, no voice, no presence<\/p>\n
No nothing darkness and heaviness<\/p>\n
Instead of light and lightness of spirit<\/p>\n
A battle of wills,<\/p>\n
Who will be the victor?<\/p>\n
No one because the love will die<\/p>\n
And without love you have nothing<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
