Foolhardy

Full belly.

Full heart.

Full head.

Foolhardy.

Fool me once

Shame on you.

My shame keeps growing

By the day.

Desperation doesn’t

A cool cat make.

I am who I am which is

Who I wanna be.

Can’t be anything else

But the authentic me.

I care too much.

I love too much.

I am too much

For some people, it seems.

Even in my dreams

I end up disappointed.

And life is one big dream

I cannot wake up from.
