You were in my arms

What happened?
The fates ruled against you this time,
all of your dreams shattered,
with one fateful reply,
you know, you were just
in my arms, gazing into my eyes,
you kissed with such desire,
like I was the only one.
Yet you played your game
and I played mine,
we played each other and I got hurt.

I thought I knew you so well,
but you were hiding under the clouds,
secrets destroy the truth
what was thought to be true,
never really was.
So we walk down this path
fall aimlessly, helplessly into
each other's arms,
only to have it ripped apart
gone without any warning.
Yes, you played your game
and I played mine,
we played each other
yet I got hurt
when you decided to be honest.

    honesty is crucial in any relationship...
    yet some are blind .
    not realising thwe consequences lie up ahead of that dark road thatone chooses to take & there's no roads turning back once they've taken it.
    I hope my friend that thinks get better for you!
    keep penning on one stroke at a time!

    Oh My God

    I have been there and done that several times in my life.... the second time around thou I knew that it wasn't going to last because we were honest up front. Which it made it harder to go our separate ways. for the both of us. something that should have lasted forever only lasted for a year. Great piece that you have penned out here. only people who have experienced this will only be the ones to really get it. Because they will read between the lines.. One must do so to really appreciate this piece.

    this is a beautiful poem, its an emotional one and one many of us can relate to... love is like a dance, fabulous and majestic when we put in the hard yards and work together but a total shamble when our feet are heading in different directions...sometimes some are only in it for the chase, a novelty that wears off when the other is in too deep... just my thoughts, great poem hun.

    Ah the games we play in the name of love, somebody always ends up getting hurt when the other doesn't want to play anymore. A very well written poem. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
