A Fool’s Heart

by Rabia aged 13

Love is one of the best yet worst feelings a person can experience.

Since love cannot always bring you joy,

for it can give you sorrow and pain.

It can either fill that hole in your heart,

or widen it.

Some say you are lucky to fall in love,

others think you are a fool.

A fool so desperate to feel love that you’d put yourself through all that torture and pain,

just to have that slice of happiness.

Just to live in that temporary serenity,

even though you know that voice at the back of your head is right,

the voice that screams

“This will not stay forever”.

But you do not listen.

For love makes you blind with stupidity.

And you don’t really realise how desperate you were ’til love leaves you behind,

searching for a new victim to break.
