My Life's a Game

My life's a game 

**** has changed 
But time will tell
My life has changed
But will it be real
If only I could see my life on the other side 
Because I've learnt that the grass is always greener on the other side 
If I could go back and change 
I won't feel so disengaged 
My heart plays a game 
My head plays a game 
But I never wanted my life to become a game 
I'm not ready to play 
I only just started 
But my life has already started the game  

I can't go out 
I feel embarrassed 
Embarrassed of what
The life I can't manage 
For you to feel the way I do 
You would have to walk in my shoes 
But I'm afraid that you don't have my size shoe 
You don't understand 
You never will 
But time will tell 

My life has changed 
**** has changed 
But to you
My life's just a game

(This is my first poem, take it easy on me)

Liam, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
