It’s all fun and games until someone gets hurt

My intentions with you were merely to flirt

I wasn’t prepared for the spell you put on me

It happened when we shared our kiss under the tree

I knew then I was yours and you mine

I still remember you smelled as sweet as wine

I cherish the moment we shared together

If only I had given you the option of forever

I never wanted you to see me brood

Y...

It’s all fun and games to believe in a higher spirit.

A God you worship,

A God you talk to.

Love, what’s that?

When you smother yourself in it, you often forget about others.

Why would you believe in a single person that’s better when you could try and see other people?

Someone’s going to get hurt if you shove everyone into the same door.

Why we pray? For a hope of some sort.

Try and find hope ou...

If I wasn’t ok,

Would you want to know?

If the pain was too much

And I couldn’t let go,

Would you want me to tell you

And not let it grow?

If the darkness looked endless

And I hadn’t a hope,

Would you want me to wave

Before I go?

Questions run through my mind

But what repeats time after time,

Can you tell I’m lying

Each time I say I’m fine?...

I love love

But i have never truly felt heartbreak

How will I know if I am winning

Until is fairly lose

Its all a game

Life is a game

Until we die

Because then its all pain...

Please dear friend, don’t fear the rain

You are the one who shines through pain

It is not the end, but a new beginning

The world is turning, forever spinning

It was supposed to be sunshine bright

If only we could turn back the night

With laughter and wine, so sweet, so fine,

Even when all the stars align

The silence brings shivers down my spine

It’s all fun and games until someone gets hurt ...

My initiative spark lit a bonfire of "help,"

I saw your dull routine and let out a Yelp.

I swore I was a beacon, bringing the light,

But my intense enthusiasm just filled you with fright.

"It's all fun and games," I declared, tearing things down,

"Until someone gets hurt"—you wore a sharp frown.

My overwhelming good turned into a mess.

I caused the disaster, I must confess.

Now I burnout alone, ha...

I don’t want pity

I don’t want shame

But i am really fucking sick

Of the never ending pain

My blood pressure is low

My heart rate is high

I’m dizzy and I am crying

It feels like I’m dying

“Its all fun and games till someone gets hurt”

What kind of twisted game is this?

Was I dealt a bad hand?

Or is it all just by chance?

I am 14 for fucks sake

And I am getting a cane

So I can walk and stand

Bu...

They said it would be magical,

the summer carnival rolling into town—

cotton candy clouds and laughter spinning

on the Ferris wheel against the sunset.

You were innocent then,

twelve years old with coins clutched tight,

eyes wide at the painted signs promising

Wonder! Thrills! Step Right Up!

It’s all fun and games, your mother said,

handing you a twenty-dollar bill,

kissing your forehead like a bl...

You took my love, like ore from the ground.

You broke it up ready to be smelted, and in my heart I saw you forging and fusing me with you until both our essence was combined into something beautiful.

It turned out my eyes were wrong, instead of forging bands, I watched helplessly as you wielded the hammer to break apart all that precious intricate work, only for you to reform it into something ...

Innocent beginnings

Dipped in poisonous possibilities

A game of roulette

for the promise of riches,

of love,

of fulfillment

The clink of two wine glasses,

smiles and

overzealous laughter,

Rose tinted glasses at first,

then broken shards

When you realize

that intention isn't enough

that you cannot hold the future

in your hands

and shape it every which way....
