Roleplaying Game

Roleplaying Game

A Poem by MakeshiftRose
"

Let's play a game. A roleplaying game. I will be the one who stands above everyone, My nose high in the air. You can be the one who crawls on your knees, Begging to be left alone.

"

Let's play a game.

A roleplaying game.

 

You be me,

And I'll be you.

 

You can be the girl

Who cries herself to sleep every night.

 

I will be the girl

Who's heart is nothing more than a black hole.

 

It sucks the love out of people's lives,

Bringing them to their knees in surrender.

 

I will be the one who stands above everyone,

My nose high in the air.

 

The one who takes all the joy out of the day,

Candy from a baby.

 

You can be the one who crawls on your knees,

Begging to be left alone.

 

Mercy isn't granted.

It never is.

 

But that's just how I am.

Because I'm pretending to be you.

 

It doesn't feel good,

Does it?

 

Having someone stomp on you everyday,

Their designer high heels crushing your soul.

 

Your spirit crumples into a million pieces

Too tiny to be pieced back together.

 

Want me to stop?

Too bad.

 

But that's what happens

When you roleplay.

Wow, very intense, very powerful. I like the creativity you put into this, instead of just saying, "imagine how I feel," you made it into a "roleplaying game", almost like you're forcing the other person to understand your feelings. Very interesting read to say the least.

That was really good! I liked how it was kind of stubborn. Like now you will get to see how it is to be me.
