The Endless Fool

The endless fool

Oh heart, you sad fool
Did you not learn
Did you so soon forget
Love, how wicked
Like a siren calling you
Come you lovesick fool
The flame, it burns you
Every time it hurts you
Why do you not see
Why do you draw near
Each scar runs deep
Each wound deeper still 
Yet you oh endless fool
You let it in 
You let it kill
Oh wretched heart
You are sad indeed
Love is a dagger
It only makes you bleed

Katrina. Again, welcome to the "Soup". Your poetry is effortless. It is as though you simply opened up a vein and let your feelings...your pain bleed out onto paper (or keyboard) for all the world to see, feel and experience. Thank you for sharing. One of my favorite features in this community is the member contests. I hope you take advantage of them to showcase your poetry in the various forms. Love and wishes, Christopher Thor Britt (CTB)
