How Foolish

amazement curves your every strength
interesting effects
you put upon myself
and thou i always dream
of you and me
forever be
you'll always want her
and enver leave
how foolish i had been
of hoping you'll love me
knowing she's the one you want
the one you need
fought to the finish
to realize my mistakes
of loving you
while you longed for another
while you held her tight
i cried all night
for the love of one
who loved nother.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
