Sometimes, foolishly

Sometimes I think,
The moon must have fallen on me.

For the shadows are so thick I can't see beyond me.

Sometimes I think,
The stars don't shine on me,

For every missed moment seems taken too abrupt.

Sometimes I think,
Only another fool could love me.

For this foolish mind and heart surely can't be loved by another.

Sometimes I know, I'm not good enough,

Not open enough,

Strong enough,

Talking enough,

Doing enough.

Sometimes I wonder, why does anyone choose to look?

Sometimes I think the world will never see,

Just how far my heart can beat,

All these hopes I hold so deep,

A vast world I could fill,

If only I let my soul be seen.

But I hide it all in.

Take the emotions and pack them in.

Further and further until they can't be seen.

Sometimes I think the fool is awake deep within me.

Because only a fool would hide form love,

Only a fool would hide from truth,

Only a fool would be silent and still

When freedom knocks and asks,

"Please let me in".

Sometimes I think the sun burned me deep,

Scorched everything.

Sometimes I wonder, what fool would love a fool like me?
