Two Can Play That Game

10/20/2009

Two can play the game that you want to play.
I am more the willing to do it your way.
You may want to think this thing through
maybe even change some of the rules.
Baby please make sure this is what you want to do
because this time the winner may not be you.
You want to use semantics to get out of your lies,
I learned how to do that early on in my life.
I ask you once again, please my love, rethink your plans,
I don't think you are going to like how this game ends.
Talk to her you truely did not
your words were sent inside a box.
The right questions I did not ask
so form yours carefully to know of my tasks.
Like you semantics I will use
to cover up my little ruse.
Remember my love, when your heart breaks like mine
all you had to do was admit that you lied.
The game will played by the rules that you have set
this my lover will be a match well met.
Now I leave you to wonder and muse
how long will I play the same game as you?
Which of my words are truth or lies?
Do I have something to hide?
If it is all innocent as I say
Then why this game do I play?
Two can play this game that you want to play,
I am more than willing to do it your way....

Hmmm

Good piece, shows much hurt.......but plenty of fight too!

Thank you my freind.

Total abstinence is so excellent a thing that it cannot be carried to too great an extent. In my passion for it I even carry it so far as to totally abstain from total abstinence itself.

hi Beth

Good to see you here. Liked the fire of this poem.

Love the way you have

Love the way you have written this,its great i agree with you 100% two can play at that game very true,your words are close to my heart

Game On

Well written...the rhymes do not feel forced. This shows great emotion...anger, hurt...but it also shows resilience. Sometimes we are forced to play the game..it seems when you play , you play to win, good for you! It seems they may have underestimated you. Great poem.

Thanks all!

Your words made my heart sing. I had thought my writing days dead,
but recent events have me writing full speed ahead. Sorry couldn't resist the ryhme.
Thank you for the kind comments.
