A fool in love

The fool believes he’s lying  

When he whispers, “I love you.”  

Fools shouldn’t think—  

They should act, like instinctual beasts.  

Too late, I learned—  

My heart's bold declaration was true.  

I let you slip away,  

Could have claimed you as mine,  

But I set you free,  

Thinking I didn’t love you.

All I know is that the pleasure aroused in me then,  still excites m...

I thought that I wouldn’t  love you when you would  grow old. Now you are and  i love you still, I shock myself in saying it, I didn’t prophecy it,  but it happened. You stayed my love. The old feeling’s still there, surprise, surprise, still there. Surprise surprise.
