Stupid

I can’t believe I didn't know – Stupid is that fails to see for every thing revealed to me, so many more you didn't show. I live denying constantly – Stupid doesn't realize that passion’s fire within your eyes will never only burn for me. The signs I didn't recognize – Stupid is that clings to thought that people change, when each day brought the warning of my faith’s demise. Lover’s plea was all for naught – Stupid is that firm believes your hardened conscience ever grieves in fear it will be someday caught. Although I stay, my spirit leaves – Stupid is that sits in wait for you to change my awful fate, my mind, my trusting heart deceives. I live in this uncertain state – Stupid is that silent stays and hangs on every loving gaze in hopes of masking growing hate. This girl that sees your cunning ways – Stupid thinks that long ago can sometimes just be simply so and foolishly, your game she plays.

Beautiful use of the form, Tracy. I do not believe that anyone who wants to love and be loved is stupid ... just human and so we learn hopefully and the future unfolds in a better way. Congratulations on your write being a feature of the week here at the Soup!!

Love is blind sometimes but never stupid. Stupid are the ones whoi don't see what they've got until it's gone. Excellent write. Congratulations on having "Stupid" featured. Vince
