The ticks and the tocks cheap shot,
The pain of the rocks cheap shot.
The ball was in your court, the rod in your hand,
Yet you still acted like an ignorant man.
STRIKE one
Remember the game of pool,
How you came acting like an indolent fool.
You had the stick you missed the ball,
But that WASN'T worst of it all.
STRIKE two
You missed the hole, and sunk my ball in,
In other words I caught you cheating.
Being with me was no pleasure,
Was no joy, no ride in the park.
It was hard work, attention needed,
But you left me in the dark.
I thought I was worth it,
Yet you told me I was not.
So I guess I understand,
Why you left me here to rot.
I have a right to be angry,
To be mad and filled with rage.
Yet part of me still loves you,
(I pray to God this is just a stage).
STRIKE three
You sunk the 8 ball in, that ended the game,
Ever since then I haven't felt the same.
Yes it's true you lost I won,
But it seems my pain has just begun.
CHEAP shot
For you left me for another,
To sit here with no other.
My heart is in pieces broken and distraught,
From all the tears I cried and all the fights i fought.
CHEAP shot
It's over we're done
Yes you lost and i won
But in fact I have none
And you have one
And guess what hun' that's not fun
I won the battle, I won the war,
But tears I cry forever more.
For you made a cheap shot and happiness is yours,
But I played a fair game and I am stripped to the core.

All through life we all have our own stories of cheap shots taken at us on many levels. I know I have a few hundred of my own. It always seems as though no one cares but truly more people understand than you realize because we have all gone through it at some point in time. Great Write!

wow.... Cheap Shot is it... *grin*
oh yah.... i won't make a cheap shot, definatly not after reading this... wow.
i liked the type of format and language you used. you made me feel like i did some kind of nasty dirty little trick that "left you to rot"... and believe me, if i have night mares about doing something like that, it's ALL your fault~
well.. i guess i'm too young to be cheating on you.... being the same age and all it wouldn't be unbelievable.. har har.
good luck
