    Game

    Trace the lines
    I’ve known for
    So long
    Ink splatters
    My heart shatters
    Watch as you walk
    Away
    My heart no longer
    A blank canvas
    You’ve left
    Your mark,
    A little to heavy
    To be a masterpiece
    I get back on
    My feet
    To be brought
    Back down again
    Subtle sings
    Of an underlying
    Emotion and I’m
    Left feeling the strain
    My eyes,
    They betray my
    Heart, I linger
    Much to long
    To hide the pain
    As you grip
    Her close smiling
    And talking,
    Is it so wrong
    To wonder why
    I’m the only one
    Who’s left behind?
    Lately I’ve been
    Beginning to find
    My smile has
    Become cynical
    As my eyes
    Become trained
    To your little
    Game
    Try as you might
    I won’t forget
    The way you
    Made me feel
    I’ll never regret
    The feelings I’ve
    Shared
    Nice try though
    I’m gone,
    No sense in playing
    The game if it’s
    One piece short.

    Mind games people play forever and often convince themselves that they are right and they're not mind game players. It's usually too late when they discover they are wrong. It's nice to know you're not a game player. Great write. 10

    Thank you SB, and no I am definitely not a player lol

    Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
