Game Over

I am only 1 woman w 1 heart an soul. For an individual like me, this world is just too cold. How can someone claim to have love an care for another, Choose to be such a heartless brother? What happened to compromising and understanding? Reasoning to deepen our morality speaking. As 2 grown adults do.. When love is true.. Love doesnt fade. Supporting 1 another stays. In all things that's God given in all ways. Understanding doesn't turn jaded, no matter how it's told. But ur heart is always so cold... I fold.. Here are my cards, i surrender.. Please dont show me your set bc my mind is a blur. I'm tired of playing this game. Don't think I'll ever look at love the same... I'll jus become to be a memory.. Like everyone I've given my heart to has placed me.

Truer words I have never read. Love is no game, only a house which your heart calls home. Time to reflect and rest your weary head. With one who loves so deeply such as you, surely you won't fade but be born anew, like a phoenix when real true love finds you.

You have expressed your feelings well, MW. Betrayal is a cut that heals very slowly. I would call it, "Game Over."

Very powerful last two lines. I think if you come back to your poem after a few hours or a day then your focus will be drawn to a part of it and that can become the title. Working title could be the game of love. Best wishes
