The Blind Fool
Nope you’re the blind fool,
eyes closed to everything here;
Authenticity;
Quirky and always honest
always lighting up a room;
So absentminded,
one time was one too many;
Boiling; festering;
It swallowed you like arsenic,
poisoning you so slowly;
You put blinders on
to all of that potential
right in front of you;
Why entertain naysayers?
Ignore the fool in your head.
