The Fool

A prisoner of heartache I will be
Sadly, awaiting your reluctant smile
Emptiness and darkness is all I see
While I'm living with your love's denial

You can never banish me from your love
Because I will simply refuse to leave
It's a love ordained from Heaven above
For my heart is conditioned to believe

Tho my heart may be broken, it will mend
For tomorrow, will be another day
Until it comes, I will only pretend
You turned your glance, for a moment, my way

Tho I'm weary and tired of rejection
I'll patiently await your affection

Very mysterious, and romantic. Makes a girls heart go thumpity thump!
