Games With My Heart

As I wonder through the chambers of my own psychotic mind,
I think of the things I could have done,
To keep my heart from falling into your everlasting bind,
And protect it from your idea of fun.

Every thing I've ever wanted,
Now gone in karmatic vain,
Every tear I've ever resisted to shed,
Now only because of pain.

Cause I don't know.....
(chorus)
What to believe, and who I can trust,
Are you playing games with my heart?
How to react, and say what I must,
I can't handle being apart! (end)

I think of the memories I share with you,
As I gaze into shattered mirrors,
Wondering if all I've heard is true,
That's the moment I realize my greatest fears.

I want to believe that you've been good to me,
That's my true desire,
And that you loved me for more than what others see,
Our passion was one of fire.

Cause I don't know....
(chorus)

So slit my wrist back open,
And let demons mourn,
My heart has been broken,
And my soul's been torn.

The pain will die with me,
And I'm not scared,
So don't cry scornfully,
Cause you never .....cared!

    I really really really relate to these words, probably better than you'll ever know. Beautifully put and nearly brings me to tears ad it makes me think of all my hurts and aches, which made me who I am today.

    OMG this poem is awesome! I agree with SchizoChic that it'd make an amazing song. I think a band like Breaking Benjamin would make it come alive very well. Very well written. Excellent!

    I think this is well written and would love to hear it put to music. What genre would it be I wonder? Excellent work deary.

    "So slit my wrist back open,
    And let demons mourn,
    My heart has been broken,
    And my soul's been torn."

    This part sets the whole song on fire and makes it breathe for me. I love it.

    I like how you spoke of your feelings in a song. I think he ! at the end of some o the parts make it sound a little exaggerating, and I think the lines stand fine on their own. I didn't expect the ending with the "wrist slit open". Thanks for entering.

    Wow

    This is great ... really dark, and full of bitterness. I'm guessing its written as a song - I would love to hear what this would sound like with music. A really intense poem. Fantastic!
    Thanks for entering my contest!
