The Doomed Lover

In the clumsy thoughts of an aimless fool
His dreams flew around in a dusty squall.
Was playing a game of which he knew no rule;
An utter doom was the writing on the wall.

Seems everyone knew but for the thick-skulled;
Wise men had long back made the prophecy.
The lights blew out, darkness sieged his world;
He'd heard love is blind and now blind was he.
