Fool

Fool

A Poem by 송지석 / Ji-Suk

The street we use to walk on numerously
I am walking down the street.
With other women, not you 

As you can see, I am doing well 
I'm fine
Please don't bother me

You think I am still dwelling in the past, mother?
I'm sorry that you miss someone you can manipulate
That fool is no longer here 

Did you miss me? 
The one that died back then?
It is the end now

I still remember seeing you walk behind those iron bars
I pray that you'd come back
That fool who waited for you 
That fool is no longer here 

Everything has changed, this street has changed too
Why didn't you come back? 
By turning the clock?

What more do you want from me?
You will we be abandoned
You're my toy, I am the predator and you're the prey now
Once I get sick of you, it's over

You think I am still dwelling in the past, mother?
I'm sorry that you miss someone you can manipulate
That fool is no longer here

Sad that people try and manipulate especially parents- children or adult we have right to own choices and actions as long as they are done in truth and integrity- then again we all have our own paths to walk and will learn by ourselves- but when we feel that we are taken for a fool then it’s the one making you feel this way who has a lesson to learn- well written- 🌹

Thank you for your input!
Realistic places and story and places described in the poetry.
"You think I am still dwelling in the past, mother?
I'm sorry that you miss someone you can manipulate
That fool is no longer here"
The above lines, hard and real life. Thank you for sharing the powerful poetry and your thoughts.

Powerful and worthwhile words shared and you are welcome
Another really hard-hitting, emotional piece Ji-Suk. You always find a way to create these beautiful, seemingly simplistic poems that hit me at the core.
Never stop writing, you're amazing.

Thank you for your kind comment! I’m glad you enjoyed it!
This sounds a bit like sweet revenge... I like it
The line: "You will we be abandoned"
Maybe cut out the we
Otherwise, it's great!
