Game Confusion

just screwing around with different things

 

I’m at a loss

loss of life, love, everything

here in the land of loss

we’re winners when we lose

we’re looking for the final loss

to allow defeat in us

giving up is easiest

when there’s nothing left to lose

so I lose it all and claim my victory

maybe when I lose it all

I’ll finally win

but sometimes when you win

you’ve really lost

it’s a game of confusion

I play to win

and to lose

in search of a prize

I can only get when I’ve lost

and therein I win

but I can never seem to lose enough.

It’s my mouse trap

my monopoly

it’s my scattergories

in a 'whats that phrase'

worlds largest maze

never ending game.

I’d ask you if you wanna play

but in my description you may just run away…

 

then you’d win the game.

Very interesting piece that shows just how twisted life can be if you treat it like a game... the best reward in life is to live each day the best you can... a thought provoking piece.

wow - what a ride you take with this one - win to lose and lose to win - running away seeming to be the only winning option - hmmmm ....definitely you make the reader think with this one and that is always a good thing!!! nicely done.
