Just Another Game

I fell Back into the shadows Hiding in my shell Watching the rain Extinguish hell Gradually, sizzling pain I watch, but I shouldn't tell How hot the flame once was Not a soul could fathom How every molecule, nerve Connected by the seams of your soul, Irreconcilable images That which begets peculiar bliss and agony A visual so encumbered of confusion, How could one betray That which once was my light Numb, dead, decay, Your words Rewind, replay Broken promises, lies How could you Leave me in the dark, Oozing, bleeding How could you break my heart? The rain Is crashing down Emphasizes the pain, Please, tell me, was I Just a player in your game?
