Jester of Love

The fool who falls...
The fool who actually cares,
The fool overcome by infatuation,
The fool who falls in love with hopes—
hopes of falling in love.

Falls for any pretty face—
faces that show kindness,
faces that smile at him.
Only the feeling of kindness is enough.
Truly a fool—
a fool that still believes in love.
