Often the game is played
  between two, yet the field
is not inclined to be level

Stakes can be skewed
  as one seems to invest
considerably more

Sublime to understand
  is it love or common lust
that shadows the path

Flirtatious & alluring
  nature compels us to
act frivolous at best

What is real or are we
  to apt to wear our egos
proudly on our sleeves

COY SENTIMENTS
  reveal inner shyness
longing to be freed.

Alas clarity culminates
  and true selves must
disclose their secrets.
