How tangled I am
In this lovers web
My penalty for
Willingly assuming the pose

You have seized this opportunity
To use me
To structure your ego

You demonstrate your intentions
Our love to be concealed
We tamper with fate
You will not be jilted

You play me like a piano
I act on each string
I pay for each lesson
How tangled am I
In this lovers web

Whoo hoo, can I relate..."You play me like a piano"
Love it, love the analogies

This is a brilliant sticky image. You decribe so well how we can get trapped by circumstance.

I can relate to this so well. I am involved in a situation that just screams what you wrote, it is almost like you know me.  Dee

Wow! This poem is superb!  

You play me like a piano
I act on each string
I pay for each lesson

Hmm... good expression!  I liked how you put this... and how true sometimes!  Really enjoyed this poem of yours
