Name

What is my name? In many lives I reign, while many others try to refrain because countless lives I have drained, even though they try to abstain, I can be a hell of a strain. What is my name?

People will raise me very high, even the richest try to justify by putting me on a pedestal knowing, I'm the biggest lie. Who am I? Can you exclaim my name.

I'm called fame because by any means I'm attained and for that reason I'm also called a low down dirty shame. What is my name.

For lives I do disrupt and I can be quite abrupt so I'm labeled Corrupt. Now when you attempt to succeed I'll send people with speed, just to impede. So I'm called Greed.

As well as mistrust making countless relationships go bust, I make you covet each other's soul mates, so I'm called Lust.

Although they claim, they can sum it all up with one name because I make you point fingers, so I'm called Blame. Or make you set each other up, Frame. So that one name I'm called is Game. But what is my surname.

You see, I will work for you like a Jinn, make your wishes come true then bring you to an abrupt end because I'm not your friend. I'm simply here to do you in. And there's few who call me by my true name. Now What Is My Name???   S I N..
