Dorian Leigh circa 1960's
A Fool's Love
It seems human nature to be blind to what we have
Can you claim bankruptcy on something metaphysical?
The whole world within 24 hours reach
Yet you seem to have forgotten her face
----
East to West the sun does rise
With ever morning, a new flaming dawn
The light exposes your victor's triumph
But to win would be a thrill,
and you sink further from glory
----
It's a crisis within itself
You can place your longing, but fear the safety of loneliness
To fight this would be to question all things rational
A Voltarian dilemma
Which pains you to express
-------
"It's difficult to free a fool from the chains they revere" -Voltaire
