The Outcome of the Game of Love

She used to try and make me jealous then I would chase her around love the attention that develops then she’d go and put me down Tell me that I’m insecure as I forever worry more claim that’s why I get ignored when really this is her reward But she would overplay this game once it ends it starts again every time is just the same she’ll get attention then complain it seems that she needs this from me forcing her to plant the seed but I’m forever unhappy thinking she’s about to leave Realising this I just don’t care questioning us as a pair feeling I’m treated unfair better off without her there as she just waits for my reaction but this time it seems I lack one struggling to find attraction telling her I think we’re done This was never her intention believes I’ve changed my strategy waiting assured in anticipation yes it’s strange but she knows me So she knows in time I’ll fold the upper hand is hers to hold when I give in she’ll have control and she will play my sorry soul The pattern says I’ll apologise for chasing her while I’m denied all the annoyance I supply that she soaks up to get a rise As if I’m with her just to suffer and I would never seek another but I think I no longer love her and I would like another lover not an outcome she can see it’s not a possibility she just sits and waits for me we are no longer a we I don’t need to feel this way stupid selfish games she’ll play doesn’t hear the words I say cheerio we’ve had our day weeks go by she waits for me I’m out pulling quite happy she still sees it a strategy unaware we’re history Every time I chased her around love I had was going down now I don’t want her around she’s not even worked it out Love is not a game you play It’s give and take and not one way so If love is a game you play you ain’t in love be on your way!
