There’s no meaning to this game
If you cannot speak my name
I gave you all I had to give
But your eyes reveal your shame

At first I didn’t want to believe
There was a tale of lies which you did weave
But when the truth lies before me
There is no way to remain naive

So what am I to do?
I’m but a simple girl who wanted something new
I suppose that’s where I goofed
But despite the odds, my love for you grew

Now I see what you’ve become
I know now the deeds you’ve done
And I’m unsure of what to say
For this betrayal has left me numb

On second thought, I have it now
You hurt me, no need in saying how
You aren’t worth my time
And with these words I vow

Never again will I fall in a daze
For a player who’d set me ablaze
And leave me alone to burn
So I swear for the rest of my days

Allow me to take a moment
To say these trifle things
Humor me, my friend
A fool’s words can take to wing

The man you hold so dear
A husband he will not make
His kind do not stay
So don’t settle for a fake

I know you are oblivious
To his nocturnal affairs
You are too sweet and trusting
And that this catches you unawares

I merely have your best interests
In mind when I say this
Your lover is a *******
Don’t sucumb to his sweet kiss

You say that I am crazy
I don’t know him like you do
But tell me dear, where is he now?
Don’t know?
Then tell me who’s really the fool

With all these burdens on my mind
I find myself weighed down
I bare the world upon my shoulders
Making Atlas seem like a clown

This weight is so heavy
I feel it in my soul
It’s like a curse delivered
Determined to crush me whole

What did I possibly do
To be granted such a charge
I cannot hope to sustain it long
For this given task is one much too large

I know that I am lost
But how can I be found
For I put no faith in stories
That seem so logically unsound

Does that make me evil?
Since I find it hard to believe
In the one called King of Kings
Or the wonders He achieved?

I think I’ll continue to exist
In this state of suspension
Until my faith can be confirmed
And I might be relieved from this dimension

This isn’t a game
This actually kills
Do you think it’s cute?
To say cutting gives you thrills?

You’re lying to the world
And more importantly to yourself
Self harm isn’t a joke
People have actually killed themselves

There’s pain behind their actions
Or an addiction to be endured
It’s not a rise to fame
Or anything that absurd

It’s a serious problem
So don’t pretend your life is ****
When there are others out there
Struggling not to submit

War
Men go to battle
But women wage the war
The pen be her greatest weapon
Mightier than the sword

A woman knows the way to win
For it is she who beds the king
That holds the kingdom in her hand
And carries a fatal sting

She does not favor bloodshed
For poison is much cleaner
Pity those who cross her
For soon they’ll be taken by the “fever”

Men go to battle
But women wage the war
If you were expecting a damsel
You won’t find what you’re looking for
