Curse the Fool

Who is the larger fool?

Curse the fool who fell for you 

Hoping for a simple world 
Curse the fool who tried to make 

A life seem right, whole and true. 

Mock the fool who tried to fly 

Reach the sun and grab the light 

Mock the fool who tried to heal 

The pain, the heart, and all of you 

Forgive the fool who failed to make 

The light shine brighter, the wind blow quieter 

Forgive the fool who tries too hard  

Forgive the fool, because I forgive you.

Sometimes no matter what you do you are talking to a tree. After awhile you realize i love you but this is not me. I think it's you. I like it.

Absolutely fantastic read. It offers a sense of healing and this hope that you can set the other free through the shared experience of understanding and forgiveness. Loved it.
