Love is not blind. Love is Quicksand.

 You cannot convince her
She is not unaware of the signs
She sees them plain as day
She listens to her friends
Wait.. listens..
What makes listening different from hearing?
Does listening mean that you actually take what you hear into consideration?
Is consideration enough or does listening involve more actions?

So, yes she sees the signs
And yes she knows she ought to leave
But she loves him so much she'd absorb his guilt in his pleas
His words keep pulling her back in
His actions keep confusing her mind
Her love for him keeps her molded as a doormat
For him to keep taking steps
Steps to draw her back

Would you say love is blind
If one can see?
Would you say love is blind
When one can hear and understand bullshit

Love is not blind
Toxic "love" is like standing in quick sand
You see you are sinking
But you cannot move
