fool

I hunt her down,
relentlessly,
endlessly
I obsessed,

I yearned,

I mourned,

I wept

until
I found
what I was looking for.

Purple dress,

flowers
in her hair,

a smile
on her face
that I
did not generate.

A wedding photo
that I
was not in.

His face
is weak.

His demeanor
is lame.

His appearance
causes me
to question
the decision
she made...

but she made it
and now
it is done

and I
am still
the same fool
I have always
been.
