All Hearts Are Foolish All hearts are foolish. Fool them well, for though those who've been tricked may tell of lessons learned from past mistakes, it seems their history only makes them more susceptible to fall again, and if you have the gall to push them to the edge, they'll trip. But when you're pressing lip to lip and whispering words that make them smile, your heart must keep its distance while you trick them into loving you. If not, then your heart's foolish too— and isn't the most foolish he who carves out his own misery? | |
