Playing The Fool

Once again I can't sleep.
Over analyzing, searching for
truth but, as always, finding
nothing. The tears won't
stop, and I've stopped
fighting them. I've surrendered
to the pain, as much as I
didn't want to admit you
hurt me. To my surprise I've
played the fool, but in a
weird twisted way only I
would understand...so did you.
Maybe if I actually closed
my eyes I could sleep, but then
I'd start thinking of you, and
I don't want to. In all truth
I wish I could forget you, I wish
so much that I could hate you.
I'm dreading seeing you. Now
I know what has been keeping you
too BUSY to talk to me. I hoping
your too busy with her to even
make appearance that I'll see.
Knowing my luck you'll waltz
in trying to be my friend...well
I'm sorry to say, but you aren't
a friend. Friends don't play with
each others heads, friends don't pretend
to be something they are not, or say things
they do not mean. You are so right
I'm being so immature...do you hate me
yet? Perhaps if you hate me, I'll be
able to hate you. Because I trying to
hate you would be so much
easier than trying to love...I've decided
that's impossible. Love might as
well not even exist to you. Some people
just can't face their fears...cowards,
yup and you're one of them. I'm not
saying you were afraid to love, I know
now you just liked knowing someone
would do anything for you, follow you
anywhere and love you still have
you've ripped their heart out...more
than once. I wish I could yell at
you, tell you exactly how I feel
all that's bubbling and molding...
rotting. But all at the same time
I don't ever want to talk to you
again. I'm trying so hard, not to
give in and talk to you. But I guess
I've kind of failing, because I'm sure
you'll read this. And maybe if I'm
lucky, you'll play the same game I
am...oh and you are?
Get my POINT...AM I MAKING MYSELF CLEAR?
THE GAMES ARE OVER...THE FUN IS OVER.
BITE ME! You really are a coward...you
couldn't even call me, you send me nasty
e-mails out of no where and expect me to
be ok. Fool. Maybe I only played the fool
in a weird, twisted, way only I would understand,
and maybe you just plain played the fool,
or better yet volunteered for the part.
My completely here and there thoughts
probably irritate you...GOOD! I
hope you can look at yourself in the
mirror and honestly think you have compassion.
I hope your happy in that lie.
Although the truth hurts, you can't live
in a lie forever. So maybe I should
feel lucky, I escaped before it killed
me, or perhaps I'm already dead.
Who am I fooling? I'm a love-sick
fool, all because of you.
