People set up traps around their heart and soul
Waiting for a fool to take the bait.
I am always the fool falling into traps,
I've never set up traps of my own.
So how will I ever catch my foolish lover?
How will they fall for me when there's nothing to trip them?

I'll tell you how

I've set my life so I won't need a fool,
I've made it so when the right person catches me,
They won't want to let go.
They won't put me in a cage to keep me,
They'll let me sit on their shoulder.
They won't clip my wings and keep me down,
They'll let me fly around above them.

When I meet my soul mate,
They'll understand why I write poetry and draw pictures.
When I meet them,
They'll be patient to learn all my secrets.
When I meet my soul mate,
I will be able to look into their eyes and say "I love you".
I made this a year ago but I thought I had lost it. I finally found it again.
