A Poem by Rita L. Sev
"

...

"

She played a game of hide and seek,

donned best friend masks

and took a peek,

found the soft spots at my core,

used me up

then sought no more

wary now,

I will not count ~

the game too grueling to surmount.

and never a more appropriate captcha .. how does it know? ;)

Good advice, E... and yes, the captcha freaked me out! Thanks!
and i refuse to close my eyes and trust...the game is over.

bitterness exudes here, but well founded., and well expressed.

Games can be for fun, competition, revenge or just merely sportsmanship. We have to be on alert and courageous to win and play by the rules so to speak. This had a reminiscent tone to it. Excellent...:)........
