Foolish…

How foolish is love

A feeling so warm it burns

As freeing as a caged dove

Yet the heart never learns

Dance all you want

Your shoes continue to dig deeper

I rely on your galavant

To keep my heart beating

And yet i only seem to fall steeper

Foolish…

Your desires more than i can handle

I give you my all so you say it’s not enough

I’ll soon burn out like a wavering candle

And you will realise my heart is not too tough

It’s hard when you fill me up with hope

And you empty it all..

Your words like a rope

Wrapping around my neck and mind

Love is a noose of a foolish kind.
