Oh love, oh love, oh foolish love, <br />You make me feel as if, <br />I had drunk a gallon of Jack Daniels - <br />That I am powerless and my life unmanageable. <br /> <br />Oh love, oh love, oh foolish love, <br />I fear that Grace might not restore my sanity. <br />I stay up nights and pine away; <br />Allow my will to run to self riot. <br /> <br />Oh love, oh love, oh foolish love, <br />Where did I go wrong? <br />How was I not able to see that your allure, <br />Your devilish witchery, would ruin whatever <br />The chance I once had had <br />To check my faults of character. <br /> <br />Oh love, oh love, oh foolish love, <br />My age, my length of years, <br />Was I too slow to figure the sum, <br />Had wisdom failed me, and rendered me prey <br />A hundred times to the same old line? <br /> <br />You have broken my heart, <br />Enfeebled my muscles, <br />And many bones in my body ache. <br />You have cut my life to the quick. <br /> <br />The pain you cause, I know, I know! <br /> <br />Oh love, oh love, hope now gone, <br />For me nothing more, there is nothing more, <br />But day after day of misery.<br /><br />STANLEY PACION<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/foolish-love-11/
