“love is not blind”
by edna st. vincent millay

love is not blind. i see with single eye
your ugliness and other women’s grace.
i know the imperfection of your face,
the eyes too wide apart, the brow too high
for beauty. learned from earliest youth am i
in loveliness, and cannot so erase
its letters from my mind, that i may trace
you faultless, i must love until i die.
more subtle is the sovereignty of love:
so am i caught that when i say, “not fair,”
‘tis but as if i said, “not here—not there
not risen—not writing letters.” well i know
what is this beauty men are babbling of;
i wonder only why they prize it so.
