The game
We all know it so well
Yet say we never play
Playing with fire just to see if we can burn
The things we lose because we almost do but never try
This game we play
The one we believe will grant all the wishes we want
Never thinking of who crafted such a thing
What kind of bet did we make?
How high are the stakes?
Just your heart
No problem
So now we live in a world
No feelings
No actions
Only “likes” and “maybes”
Walls and barriers made to keep everyone at a safe distance
The illusion of closeness
Too afraid to let go
Too afraid to show your true face
They say rejection is a killer
How would we know
We never actually tried
So we’re destined to keep playing
Betting more
Raising the stakes
Continuing this dance between real and fake
Take my hand
A seductive tango leading to nothing
Destruction just a misstep away
Who will twist an ankle first
Tap out
Give up
Break down the walls or climb over
There’s no winners in this game just losers
Until we realize that
Love is dead
All is left are sins
