Foolish Girl

Mason Vollman

With the cute smile you have imprinted on your face,

When you look at me.

You fooled me.

 

 

The way your eyes open wide,

To reveal your beautiful hazel eyes.

You fooled me.

 

 

With the way you would run from the bugs,

I wanted nothing more but to run with you.

You fooled me.

 

 

When you took off your hat,

I could watch your hair dance in the wind.

You fooled me.

 

 

The way you would throw sticks at me, acting nervous,

When really it was a hand-picked heartbreak.

You fooled me.

 

 

When you said I should just do it,

Leading me towards false devotion.

You fooled me.

 

 

With your hands that I wanted to hold,

Are now gripped tightly onto my throat.

You fooled me.

 

 

With the way your eyes would meet mying,

And neither of us could look away.

You fooled me.

 

 

With the love you received from me,

Forcing me to believe it was mutual.

You fooled me.

 

 

When you said i should do it without asking,

Because you wanted me to do it.

You fooled me.

 

 

When it took all my courage to do it,

And you ran from me.

 

You fooled me,

 

Into thinking you loved me.

    too true the heart must learn to fight i havent changed my mind,you have
    if im learning to physically fight im busy,
    its summer we are sell ing what could you expect
    im tired i ve been training for the end of the world the tribulation
    im stong and disipined you must wait for me to catch up with you
    soon you will have no time for me

      The tribulation will happen when you're least prepared for it.

          this is a remarkably written ouch poem .. that's what I call a poem about love that was maybe a bit one sided .. Very much enjoyed .. Kind Regards & thanks for taking a peek at a couple of my scribbles .. Neville

          The theme rang true through this poem and often in life we need to have the ear to hear the signs in the first stanza of life so as not to keep on being fooled by what we want to hear not what is there. Good write
