A game no one can play

I stare ahead at the wavy blue, As I recall the lovely sue. Her love is still well hooked within, I am not so sure where to begin. There was a time my heart was free, A hummingbird on a willow tree. But what fate had in store for me, Changed my life a great degree. I never thought I would fall in love, With a pretty rose, a tender dove. She grasped my heart with a swifty swing, It hit me hard, not just a sting. I lost my mind and self control, But knew I’m here to play a role. For what I learned along the way, Love is a game no one can play.

Hello Darlene, You are always right my friend. However, I feel that my message was not clear. When I said that " love is a game no one can play", what meant is that no one can play with love and even if you attempt to do so, will eventually be played. If no one can play a certain game then that game does not exist. Thank you Darlene, I enjoy reading your feedback my friend. Saleh
