Array ( [sid] => 27354 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Your Fool [time] => 2003-11-17 21:51:17 [hometext] => Things aren't always the way they appear to be [bodytext] => You open up and then shut back down;
Giving only enough to keep me around.
This time,
I thought I'd broke through,
But I guess that was just me -
Trying not to remember...
Always wanting to forget;
How well I know you.
If I could only see you
The way all the others percieved;
Maybe then,
I too; would be able to leave.
They all think its a game you play...
And they're your helpless pawns.
Your friends watch the skills you've mastered;
With envy and silent aww.
They laugh at me -
The fool who can't say goodbye,
But they're the ones who want to be like you.
Its all a masquerade,
And they don't even
Realize...
Can't see that your alone because your afraid.
In their minds they're thinkin'
'Damn that girl got played'.
All the while you were thinkin'
'She's getting too close, I have to push her away'.
Your intentions are misunderstood -
People see you as heartless and cruel,
But I know the truth.
Let them think what they want...
I'll always be your fool.

Your certainly have a mind of your own.
And that is really good with your tone.
People can't influence you, and tell you what not to do, or what not to do!
Hang on to your convictions, they will carry you through!
Great Poem...
however, I hope you are not his fool...are you?*smiles*

That's sweet. Love is blind, and so are we; the best perceptions are from those who cannot see. I find it an intriguing take on the pains of love, and without doubt a high acheivement in individualism when it comes to the overused theme of love.

Commendably done.
