A Game Fools Play
Whatever happened
to the love we knew?
And why do you treat
me the way you do?
You spin silken lies
that defy belief.
And sneak out at night
like a common thief.
Perched upon my trust,
you portray a dove.
Yet, you woo trouble,
and betray my love.
If hope disappears
love fades, and it dies.
And depression feeds
upon its demise.
You have taken my
happiness away.
And equated love
to a game fools play.
