The Games You Play Poem by Haley Revell

Through tear filled eyes
I finally begin to realise
The things I've done to you
The friend I thought I knew

All of these sweet lies
Are bound to make you cry
By telling the brutal truth
I honestly thought I could save you

I dont understand why you're so angry
It was you that started the game
Yet still you blame me
How was I suppesed to feel
When I found our love wasnt real

Don't know whats worse
The pain, the anger, the fear,
When you're so far away,
Yet you are so near

Now with jaw clenched tight
I push you away
I dont want to be part
Of the games you play

I dont know why you treated me
The way ou did
I cant change
The way it is

What was it
That I did wrong
To make you abuse me
For so long

My life is falling apart
And it all seems to start
With YOU
I dont want to believe its true

But could you please
For once answer me
What has happened
To all my dreams

I try, oh god, I try
Just to do things right
But it always ends up
In an endless fight

I stand to say
The things you would not
But the anger
Never seems to stop

I try to find my way
Through the secrets that you keep
And still your voice
Haunts me in my sleeep

The knowledge
Of how much I gave
Only to be the one
Who was betrayed

Who were you
From beginning to end
Were you a foe
Or were you a friend

This I must know
I have taken the lies
Like hits
Blow after blow

Can you look in my eyes
And for once tell me the truth
Or am I even woth that to you
Stop the dream, this is reality

And with jaw clenched tight
I push you away
I dont want ot be part
Of the games you play
