Fell in Love with the Game.A Poem by Tim LawlessI fell in love with a fake. I fell in love with a game. I fell in love with a face With no name.
She told me she loved me, Said it was all true. In the end I'd be ashamed I never knew.
She wasn't like me. Not a human being. The smile and the eyes They were all for deceiving.
I fell in love with a fake, I fell in love with your games, I fell in love with lies And false fame.
But it was so close, How could I ignore it? She was so close How could I avoid it?
I wish I could erase the memory, But imperfect love, Was left with me.
Because of that face, I now know disgrace. I've met so much shame, 'Cause I fell in love with the game. © 2008 Tim Lawless |
