We Are Fools

Wed, 11/12/2014 - 15:08 -- mfarnzy
Sometimes we fool ourselves
into thinking the best and the worse.
That he loves me.
That I am stupid. 
That she is so amazing.
That, compared to her, I am nothing.
 
Truth is, we are all fools
in this Topsy-Turvy world.
We all fall in love
and do stupid things.
We all are profound in something
and nothing can take it away.
 
We are fools to time, the world,
and to ourselves we fool the most.
We forget to love ourselves
demeaning us lower than others
creating an illusion of perfection
while destroying the perfection in ourselves.
