A Fool
A fool, I was
I fell in love
once on a time
a long time ago.
when I believed
it was real
I thought!
I thought,
I was allowed
the pursuit
let my heart.
To say, to speak
to express
my heart.
My thoughts
would run amuck.
I would never,
never!
dare the thought
again.
My heart waited,
A prison.
It is locked
it will not be set free.
See! Before I was a fool
I thought it could
it could
find it.
But now,
I put it away
in a secluded place.
But still,
still it would
sometimes think
think back on the love
the one it was mad about.
See! I was a fool
I know better
it would never
see the daylight ever.
