I was the fool...

I was the fool...

A Poem by Sir Altitude
"

Something I wrote one day when I was commiserating over my ex...she was the first girl I truly fell for. Needless to say, she broke my heart. I'm all good now though. =P

"
What is it that confuses me so? A life so full of effervescence, of
vigor. Taking a walk through these twisting tunnels seems to
simultaneously illuminate yet darken my vision. She, she is the beacon
of searing polarity that galvanizes the nerves, like being struck with
Zeus's full fury. A solid foundation I want to lay in, to grow
accustomed to again. Yet I know this is in vain, for times change, and I
am a man now, a man who still seeks her affections like a 10 year old's
tryst with that special one. Why? Why do I continue? I have yet to
know. Only time will tell if I was the fool or the gallant in this
story. If only I could harness Father Time's power, if but for a moment.
The comprehension of it all trickles slowly through the crevices of my
mind, but I find solace in the fact that someday, it will form a pool of
knowing that is large enough to dive into, head first.
