Prompt: Write a poem or prose with the first line being "A fool I was".

A fool I was
to walk down the halls
which never welcomed me.

A fool I was
to let go
of the dreams I weaved.

A fool I was
to believe
finding in this bitter bowl
a sweet treat.

A fool I was
to become the person
I was never supposed to be.
