Foolish Decisions

careless
have I found guilty
judged before the day
that's lasted in misery 
in the untimely passing
of what's been 
foolish reasoning- 

the deciet of unfound love
am I truly convinced
I stand accursed a fool
before a standing mirror
am I seen- 

it's not beyond my guilt
to inherently plead
beyond this torment
of what was only
innocense- 

for no one shall I plead
thereafter-

for I'd rather surrender my life
to you in a memory
than bow before the reality
of what my eyes
truly see
