Playing games
to hide the game
I played
to make you think
it wasn't a game
and now I'm lost
in my complete confusion.
Lost in a game I played
as a cover for the
game I played to
get you to think
it wasn't really
just a game
but it was
all just a game to me.
Or was it more
and the game I'm playing
is just a game to cover
up for the the game
I played
to make you think it
was just a game
to cover insecurity.
Or is it really just
a game to cover
for the game
I played
to hide the game
I played
to make you think
it wasn't a game
and now I'm lost
in my complete confusion.

I don't even know if this one makes sense, but I wrote it and I like it, so i thought I'd share it

Lakewalker: I like this one bunches. It's twisted! Keep up the good work! Allysa

Don't wander throught this glassy surface, expecting to find more than me, because what I am without a purpose, but a lone mirage to see.

HAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAA!!!! This poem is so damn creative. This was sooooooooooooooooooo good hahaha i loved it. Its so great, im tellin ya....its so damn great to see something new around here *takes as much of this new breath of fresh air as possible*......the air here gets dense with depression. I'm so happy to see this poem. made me smile, and think "damn this kid is witty"....good job!



I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

LMAO

I seriously just laughed out loud by the end... haha... this was so creative, so funny!  Sorry if it wasn't supposed to be but you took the "games" thing too far and then I realized it's what you were trying to do.  Halfway through I said to myself "I'll be honest and tell him it's too redundant."  And then I started to smile and laugh as I read on...
So it's good, because you had such an effect on me!  Very well done!
