(Never Again) Into the Fray

An old sonnet of mine

Never again into the fray

The game of love's not mine to play

So on the sidelines I will stay

Never again into the fray

The game of love's not mine to play

I simply see no other way

To keep my mind another day

The game of love's not mine to play

I simply see no other way

But hide until my dying day

And keep emotions all at bay

I simply see no other way

Never again into the fray

The game of love's not mine to play
