Played the Fool

You have played me the fool, once again. Your touch set me on fire.

But who's trying to make it sound romantic? It was just a fancier version of being seduced and then used and left. Each time, its a different variety. But the bottom line is the same.

How very incomprehensible to my heart, that yours can be so cold.

What a fool was I, to lust and allow your kisses to make me stop resisting. And I let you in. Just like the rest. I wanted to believe you weren't one of the rest.

And it puts my stomach in knots, to remember what your finger tips felt like on every inch of my body. But I remember anyway. My eyes close involuntarily while I remember.

Even though its so powerful and present now, it won't be forever. Just because I let down my walls like a fool for you doesn't mean I will be the fool again.

Run around and break hearts in a lavish way. I will commend you for finding your way into my scarred, inured soul. But I will not let you stay there.
