The Game Maker
She was so careful,
But fragile to the core
He was so vengeful,
He wanted something more
She was so delicate,
Skin pale as snow
He was far from perfect
How could she have known?
He wanted to bounce back,
She happened to be there
For the mind he lacked,
He couldn’t tell she was scared
She was so naïve,
She’d reinforced her walls
He was one to deceive
He’d be giving it his all
Somewhere along the way
He tripped and fell in love
And she knew the play
That he’d been thinking of
She was aware of love
And the chaos that it caused
She’d played his game, and won
Time, it seemed, was paused
He was looking for revenge
A trophy to show his friends
She’d found out in the end
And played the game the best
She was the game maker,
Breaking hearts and taking names
She was the very best faker,
The winner of all games
But fragile to the core
He was so vengeful,
He wanted something more
She was so delicate,
Skin pale as snow
He was far from perfect
How could she have known?
He wanted to bounce back,
She happened to be there
For the mind he lacked,
He couldn’t tell she was scared
She was so naïve,
She’d reinforced her walls
He was one to deceive
He’d be giving it his all
Somewhere along the way
He tripped and fell in love
And she knew the play
That he’d been thinking of
She was aware of love
And the chaos that it caused
She’d played his game, and won
Time, it seemed, was paused
He was looking for revenge
A trophy to show his friends
She’d found out in the end
And played the game the best
She was the game maker,
Breaking hearts and taking names
She was the very best faker,
The winner of all games
