The Folly's Tune

The Folly's Tune

A Poem by dementedreality

Perceive me to be as I am not and I will perceive you to be as you are.
Know me not as what I am for I am a fool who dances to his own folly.
Lighten my burden of being a fool by seeing me as I am as I cast shadows upon your soul.
Be free of my curse as I revel in your suffering.

As you suffer so do I
And thus I die
And so I am free
For before I met you I never existed.
Merely a shadow cast upon a cave.
Be free oh soul of mine as we revel in delight.
Cast not a shadow of doubt upon this, your happiness.
Or perhaps my heart aches for I see the light of your soul
Refracted through my vault of glass

Be with me and be free.
