Crooked..

It's cold outside, but yet it's hot as boring as it seems it's not My eyes are crying tears for reasons that are shown A pain is shooting through my chest but why, I don't know I sit around everyday alone in silence without a word to say Listening to music, eases my mind the place I am at, it's so hard to find I make an entrance and soon disappear my mind is stolen, but my body's still there I look so deep into your eyes as you look into mines and wonder if your love's for real or maybe I'm just blind Don't tell me I'm the one for you, don't tell me that your love is true when so gracefully you said I do, when someone else confronted you Receiving them and dumping me was it your lowest cost, or highest fee Roll the dice and take your chance I'm smarter now about romance You may have won the battle, but I sure won the war what goes around, comes around, that's what you have in store Monopoly may be the game, you tried so hard to play but don't ever underestimate me I'm not naive as they say.

Through our heartaches we grow. I liked the way you used the concept of Monopoly for forward your thoughts. Fitting title. Thank you for sharing your poem with us and for taking time to comment on mine. Keep on writing! Karen
