?

Why is man such a fool?
Someone explain the logic,
Catastrophic, is how we want the world.
It’s how it seems, even in our dreams,
Displays carnage and chaos.
Clouding my judgment,
Didn’t know what I wanted.
I want love, but I don’t.
The intrusion, of confusion
Invades and conquers.
Many monsters, trying to scare my heart.
Stay away from love young one.
Someone, tell me why man is such a fool?
Begging then pushing away.
Where is my mind? There’s limited time.
Why am I taking it for granted?
Why do you care for me so much?
It’s like I can hear you cry.
I want to fly, swoop down and come to your rescue.
Want you to be the best you.
Your potential, influential, your accent
Instrumental, a melody, telling me
How much love you have for me.
But why???
No question that I want you, want
To adore you, be there for you, mentally
And physically, you live in me, can’t get rid of me.
I think you’re my first love.
There goes my mind trying to shove
You out of existence.
Can’t escape, the rape, you’ve done on my heart.
Such a force, more intense than intercourse.
You’re my princess turning this frog
Into a great man, sometimes hate man.
It is a woman that creates rulers.
You rule my heart. I’m your kingdom.
Your wish is my command.
Guide me, provide me
With an understanding.
