April 1: The Fool (#NaPoWriMo #NaPoWriMo2020 #GloPoWriMo #Poetry)

 

THE FOOL

Am I a fool to come back here

trying to cleanse my soul with words

yearning to chill and kill?

Am I smarter than you think

easily calming the lion in me

who thirsts for quick revenge?

Should I just now turn away

avoiding the patient starry sky

where the moon rests aside in pain?

Or I might stay, shivering and drunk

listening to your favourite song

craving for my silence.
