The fool
ChandraDWells 1981 (Canada)
I'm such a fool, as I've always been
Your played your cards time and time again
I am not the one you seeks
It's other's more beautiful that turn your cheek
I used to be ashamed and torn apart
But years have turned my soul to an iron heart
I am stronger and more wise
It's no longer fait that decides
You will Never be the man for me
These words at last has set me free
I say be well, please know this is true
Good luck in the future, I am my own creator.
Don't write me, don't text
I will not respond
This dream of mine has gone on to long
This is my final message to you
Goodbye, adieu!
