How Can I Be Such A Fool?

Rating: 5.0


You came to me with a smile,
Without knowing its fake
I smiled back at you.
You opened your hands for me
Without knowing it’s a trap
I fall on them.
You looked me in the eye
Without thinking that it was all a lie,
You were just reading my mind
I looked back at you.
You told me that you love me
It didn’t cross my mind that you were just playing with words,
I told you that I love you too.
You told me that you gave all your heart to me
I didn’t heisted I gave you my heart undivided.
I won’t lie and say I knew All your words were just fabrications,
With your fragrant words you deceived me.
I never thought that you could hurt this heart of mine
Look at me now…
My heart is broken beyond repairs and you careless
Every night I sleep with tears on my eyes,
On my ears I keep on hearing your lies,
And your voice of empty promise’s.
How can I be such a fool, and let I foolish sluggish like you
To fool around with me.

a very good poem trust and betrayal portrayed very well strong emotions come into play in it and give more breath to the entire contents but love and loving someone isn't a mistakes or foolishness, that's a gift i invite you to read my the story of you and elegy of small waves That are poems with another perpective of love

Great narration of the story, lovely flow and good wording, that makes a beautiful poem mntakwethu, imnandi inkodlo yakho kakhulu but ngoba yinkondlo exoxayo beyingaba yintle kakhulu uma inama stanza, kanje... You came to me with a smile, Without knowing its fake I smiled back at you. You opened your hands for me Without knowing it’s a trap I fall on them. You looked me in the eye Without thinking that it was all a lie, You were just reading my mind I looked back at you. But still sihle esi sihobe kwaye ndiyazidla ngawe Zandile and you get stronger with every write, betha ungayeki ke ntokazi. Siya_! !
