FOOL

sitting here looking

in a mirror as i type this

wondering what’s next

my body breaking

down from abuse i never

thought it would happen

this soon i still think

i am young but my hands look

like i’m a hundred

i was such a fool

to think any of my dreams

would ever come true

but the dream of love

was my biggest dream of all

as it never ends

because i never stopped

thinking of you all these years

where did it begin
