Foolish Creature


You left me witless, 

I was forever in your grasps. 

To my unknown knowledge that risked my life of falling for you. 

You, a bird that will not be caged,

such an elusive creature you are.

With your ability to delude me from catching you and believe you want to be caught.

Oh how foolish am I, 

to fall for such a creature.
