You couldn’t be more foolish than you were the night you showed me your true colors.
You tried to laugh it off and maybe play it down like it was a joke and you’re not that shallow.
But, I see what you’re doing and I want to smile at you because only a fool would burn a bridge it’s still standing on.
I wanted to save you at first but I realized I was getting burned the more I helped and I was tired of feeling the pain you caused.
Because, you always had to be right and even though you knew it would come and bit you in the butt.
You would just look away and not stare into the eyes that knew you were lying, but for what to save yourself because you can’t seem to shut your mouth.
I hope one day you will stop being the fool and quit saying foolish things, and just grow up and keep the nasty things to yourself.
