Old Fool Poem by graham russell

you look at me with such devotion
not knowing my secret i do keep
this pain deep inside my heart
that i love another

i cry with frustration at what
to do, without hurting you
my heart aches with sorrow
cause i must hurt you

confusion rages in my mind
when i think of another and you
two loves who deserve better
than a old fool who should know
better

if i could id rip my heart in two and
give a piece to you and another
yet i can, t it wont be done
pain is all i bring to you cause i
love another

as you read this know your free even
though tears fall, your heart breaks
for your better off without this one
this old fool.
