how foolish can you get?

I've been down this path
many many many times before, telling myself
"dumb dumb dumb! how stupid can you get?!"
and here I am again.

I can analyze myself
I know just where I'm turning, what I'm about to do
I'm laughing at myself, slapping myself to the head
"silly silly silly girl! will you ever learn?" (probably not.)

did I know this was going to happen?
no, this time I had higher hopes
hopes of someone feeling the same, thinking the same, wanting the same
but I was the only one

how foolish can you get?
here I am again, thinking it over over over again in my head
just one question that hit me with reality
hit me right smack dab in the face

"why, just for the sake of kissing you?"

that hurts but I knew it was coming didn't I?
nope, no I didn't
I wished it wouldn't, I wanted it not to

miles and miles away I am, miles away just like you
now I've got grand plans (as always), I will get to you
but what's the use?
after weeks months years I'm running into new things
once in a while I'll think about the miles
how foolish, stupid, idiotic, dumb and silly can you get?

"just for the sake of kissing you?"

    Ah, the heart and the head aren't always on the same page, are they now, eMMI-lou? :)

    they sure aren't BE. they most certainlificantly aren't.


    I could wallow in self pity right now. but surprisingly I'm not. :confused: (I don't *do* self pity anyways.)
    I could cry myself to sleep for this. but I'm not. (well, I did, once.)
    I could be really taken down by this. but I'm actually feeling quite good. :) (well, there are times.)

    nice eMMI :) I guess we have to take care upon whom I our lips meet as we'll never know what the taste of fate has done to our destinies once we have eaten the fruits of our desires.

    thanks. :)

    wow, that's one hell of a sentence there. :eek: took me a while to get it and I still don't understand it properly. :D but it's good. :)

    Yeah! I'm known for some long-winded stuff!

    Condensed version. Life is like a bowl fruits, if you never eat them you'll never know how they can add passion to your life, just be careful of some that may be too ripe, and use them as fertilizer to raise the next crop.

    lol. :D well, that's all good as long as you're still capable of talking/typing so that people can understand you sometimes too. :p:D

    that's a good thought. :)

    Take care,eMs! Seems you have the right attitude about it. Of course there's hurt but, you get by that and move on to better things. :)

    you are absolutely right there m'dear! :)

    I always take care, the best I can. (which isn't always too good but enough. :o ) :)
    I think I'm gonna be fine, I got past the part where I torture myself with incredibly sad songs until I burst to tears. (girls! :rolleyes: lol. )

    you're so nice. :):):):)

    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.
