First

To me you were just another pawn in my game. Another heart for me to take and destroy. Little did I know that you would win this game and crush my heart as your prize. For the first time, I got butterflies, for the first time I spent hours getting ready before going out. I would do anything to impress you, I was your puppet. You said jump and I said "how high?" I had become just like the men that I had treated as my pets, and then broken. I was no longer the strong, independent girl I prided myself on being. instead I was hopelessly in love. I remember the first time I realized I loved you. You were staring off in the distance and I looked at you and at that exact moment as the sun hit the right side of your face and your eyes turned a new shade of green I've never seen before, I knew you had won, because in that moment you had won my heart but I hadn't won yours.

Have been in this exact situation. Going into a relationship thinking you are the player and you end up played. Maybe not by the purpose of either individual, but losing the game none the less.

Very relatable for me I loved it great poem!

There is nothing scarier, then the possibility of love, when you know you are in it alone. Beautiful.
