The Anonymous Joker
I love writing and reading. Ehh. I believe in tolerance above almost everything else. I am quite lazy. Started a blog recently. Do check it …

WILLIAM WORTHLESS  Aug 2019
joker
i was just your joker you kept me in your pack
when you dealt your hand.  you put me to the back
shuffled me around broke my heart in two
i was the the joker  thats all i was to you.

you kept all the aces hidden in your sleeve
and the love you had was only make believe
i was just a card. someone you could play
someone you could use then just walk away.

the joker in the pack that you could throw away
i was just a game someone you could play
with your cheating ways with aces in your sleeve
and the love you gave  was only make believe

i was just your joker you kept me im your pack
when you dealt your hand.  you put me to the back
shuffled me around broke my heart in two
i was the the joker  thats all i was to you.

the joker in the pack that you could throw away
i was just a game someone you could play
with your cheating ways i just didnt see
i was just your joker.  you made a fool of me
"Be careful who you call a King"**

All the romantic girls want a 'knight in shining armour'
All princesses want some noble king to sweep them off their feet
All the bad girls want a rebel who's mean with lots of green
Well... I'm all three

I want the joker
Who can outwit the knight in a fight with only his words
Who can make the king laugh with accents and gestures so absurd
Who can cause the rebel to cry and fly away like a scared little bird
I want the joker

I'm a poet
I need the joker to take away the sadness in the words I write
I need the joker to willingly fight for me with his own life
I need the joker to stand tall and proud, yet admit when he's not right
I need the joker to love me fully, unbiasedly and with all his might
I'm a poet

Knights are overrated
Kings are old and outdated
Rebels are deathly fated

Jokers are an eternity
Cause laughter can surely never die
Jokers are everything
Cause my heart will surely never cry
