A Fool For Love
He walked the streets with charm, a handsome man so fair.
But unaware of his own beauty, lost in his own despair.
His heart yearned for love, a love he's never known.
Searching in every face, in every smile, in every tone.
The mirror showed a face, a face so undefined. A face that held the key, to the love he hoped to find.
But confidence was lacking, buried deep inside, And love remained elusive, a distant, fleeting tide.
The world passed him by, as he stood in quiet longing.
Wondering if love would find him, in a world so cold and daunting.
He knew not of the allure he possessed, the charm he held within, His heart cried out in silence, a silent plea for love to win.
So he walked on in sadness, in a world that seemed so gray, Hoping one day love would find him, and take his pain away.
