    The Game

    We set the time
    We set the pace
    And you joke about
    Passions race

    And then I hear
    What I've heard before
    For convenience sake
    Am I ignored

    I'm angered again
    By the tone I hear
    But I question if
    It is just the fear

    And you make a point
    to be sure I know
    Not a frady cat
    There's the reason though

    But the reason fades
    And the truth is told
    I'm too tired now
    And I'm not so bold

    I must ask myself
    What I'm doing here
    I don't need the grief
    Of this fear

    But I want to taste
    Of this man
    Reaching out to me
    Without a plan

    His eyes they shine
    When they look at me
    He beams with such
    an intensity

    That it holds me still
    Until the time is right
    I anticipate
    for a single night

    But I question this thing
    and I question him
    It is clear to me
    I am just a whim

    Why I allow
    This to be so
    I do not understand
    So I let him go

    There is no regret
    For that which I choose
    But this power play
    He will lose

    But in his gaze
    He walks dangerous ground
    This takes too long
    He's without a sound

    Won't let him reach me 
    Not this time
    If the pain will come
    It will not be mine...

    I love your flow and the tale you tell. I enjoyed reading this.

    Poetry is what is lost in translation.
