A Fool In Love Poem by Jacqui Broad

A Fool In Love

Rating: 5.0


In the silence that follows after you've left,
I search once again for the words left behind.
Stealing a heart must also be called theft,
if it's love that blows your mind.
Maybe you didn't mean to give, but I took,
perhaps to my own detriment, but what the hell.
Now I'm crying alone in my lonesome nook -
but if you'd call, I'm sure all will be well.
Fools in love carry the scars on their heart,
bleeding love untill the last drops fall.
I thought I knew it all, and was smart -
in this silence I can hear heartache call.
A fool in love can be called a hero -
falling from the top, down to zero...

A lover is a fool in love, and a fool in love is a lover indeed. Love corrupts logic, but feeds creativity. Lovely write.

Your outspoken words in the poem are echoing in my ears and heart. Your poetic syle like Kamala Das (Classical poetess) . I like to read these line again and again... 'A fool in love can be called a hero - falling from the top, down to zero...' Heart aches when we miss our life. I can see your broken heart. Don't worry, Life is big garden to walk. sometime people may rock your heart...... An amazing and heartrending poem by Jacqui.... Kudos! 10+++++++++++
