Love Lesson

Prompt: (and) into the arms of love

Into the arms of love,
I have walked.

I never looked where I was going,
and fell
--head first--
down three flights of stairs.

I survived!

I created
bitter memories
of unhappily ever after.

Now,
I realize
that refusing to open my eyes
didn't mean
that love was blind.
