I'm infactuated by the way you say my name Captivated by this game you said we're playing I don't know the rules, they seem to change everyday But given the choice I'd still choose to stay If we're playing chess it's so clear you're the king Just to stay on the board I would do anything Be whatever you need, I'd turn into a pawn Move one tile at a time if it means you're not gone If we were playing cards I'd never fold Even if you were a losing deck I'd still choose to keep hold I'd loose billions, I'd gamble my savings away I'd bet on a losing game, for you I would pay If hide and seek is your game of choice I'd look high and low For the sight of your eyes, the sound of your voice For the scent of you that I don't even know I hate running but I'd sprint if you wanted to play tag I'd run until my lungs gave in, until my feet start to drag Hell, I'd even enter a competition, in which I have to swim If I knew that you were what I would win So take your pick, regardless I'm here to stay but with all my heart I just pray that my fellings aren't with what you want to play

We must always take the chance, it’s better to love and lose than to never love at all. I’ve enjoyed reading your poetry this morning, Jenna, welcome to Poetry Soup. John
