Manipulative Player

By Broken Rose

Letting go is pretty hard,
Especially when you draw the cards.

Put them to play one by one,
Using them for your own personal fun.

Using the weak and saving the best,
Its almost like a game of chess.

People who trust you and would do anything for you,
Makes you some times feel guilty for the moves you play them to do.

Oblivious to whats truly going on,
Getting rid of them one by one.

Knowing all their secrets and ambitions,
Gives you the perfect leverage for your mission.

Sacrificing anyone for what you want most,
People would try to prove it but others would believe it's just a host.

Pretending is incredibly hard,
But lucky im the queen of lies by far.

So for now I'll sit back and watch my game,
As it unfolds and everyone is put to shame.

I'll play my cards and I'll make my move,
Because I will not lose after all ive been through.

But games have a way of messing with your mind, as one wrong move will put you in a place you don't want to be.. Throwing away those that trust you... holding leverage above them for when they might hurt you.. We all do these things, we all have our own ammuniton to our weapon.. MissAngelic has stolen the words right out of my mouth, play your next move wth caution my dear.. you never know the outcome of your next move.. Overall, a fantastic piece, great use of showing how the world runs like a game. I enjoyed this greatly. You have a voice that deserves to be heard, so let it be heard.
