I Thought – The Writings of Tom Grasso

I thought,

Said the Spider to the Fly,

Was that you would love me

For doing this to you.

I thought,

Said the Fly to the Spider,

That I could forgive you,

For doing this to me.

I thought,

Said the target to the bomb,

Was that I’d accept you,

And look what you did to me.

I thought,

Said the bomb to the target,

That you accepted me,

But look what we did to each other.

I thought,

Said the Lover to the Beloved,

That you’d be with me forever, that I’d have the time to tell you these things,

But look at where that got us.

I thought,

Said the Beloved to the Lover,

That I’d live long enough to share with you my Heart,

But now all of that is forgotten.

I thought,

Said God to the helpless Mind,

That you’d understand the Present moment,

But all you did was relish in the past.

I thought,

Said the helpless Mind to God,

That I could fix yesterday by living it today,

But all I did was waste my time.

I thought,

Was never a Truthful answer to a question,

It was a lie created to protect us from ourselves,

But all it did was keep us from our Divinity.
