194. Blind love
You just have to face the music:
love will ever play the dirtiest tricks on you
and never be the same but always puzzle you,
upset you, never be reliable and always blindfold you
so that you never can see clear reality
but always must fall victim to it as to love,
since blind reality of love will always lead you quite astray,
you will love anyone who isn't worth it,
and you will be cruelly abused by anyone
who just will take your blindfolded condition as an opportunity
to lead you any stray path down to hell just for the fun of it,
and you will end up as a wreck completely crushed
like in a shipwreck all entangled in the shattered ruins of your lost ideals.
But there is always a way out and a salvation.
Just keep your blindfold on, refuse to compromise with false reality,
continue challenging the cruelty of the world by countering it
and opposing it with your alternative, your own created world of beauty,
which most certainly will outlast this vain world of futile nonsense.
The object of your love will constantly play foul on you
and most outrageously, but that must never check your love,
which ever must keep flowing to enrich, if nothing else,
at least the spiritual world of sentient beings
which ever will be hungering and needing more
of that true love of honesty which is the reason for your life.
