Game On
By Broken Rose
Enoughs enough the time has come,
You wanna know my game well now its begun.
You see me as sweet you see me as innocent,
Well heres the thing sweetheart you see only what I want you to.
Im sick of you're whining,
And im sick of hiding.
You want to know my game then here it is,
But I warn you it'll sting like a kiss.
One by one my pawns start to move,
I destroy the weak and menouver the strong.
First the bat had been played,
Destroyed itself along the way.
Then came the hamster,
And I must say not the brightest of the bunch by the way.
Made him fall as did I,
Seen it coming in the blink of an eye.
Watched him leave,
Incredible I was deceived.
Along the way more pawns fall,
Even my bishop was off the bored.
Fell in love with the night,
Yet lost my queen within the fight.
So now I have played my moves,
And am waiting for my own time to menouve
My game has begun and its almost to its end,
And I'll make sure the other side can't defend.
So now I say only two words to you,
Say two words to life.
Game on because I bloody will fight.

Wars are a subject of life's troubles.. Would you be declaring a 'war' of such against those who mistreat you? If I might add that though a few words seem out of place, you can find other meanings through them.. Such an interesting write and in truth I wish to know more. With such personal work of life's squanders; posting this to where all can see is bravery. Though through the mystery and awe.. I get a feeling that this piece is directed at a single person? Maybe someone who is able to read this?
Overall a great work and I will definetly be looking forward to knowing more about the writer behind the veil. Write on my friend, write on.

Declaration poetry is one of the most difficult forms because it has a very demanding word choice element. This work is bold and frank and the only critique I might offer is that I think "bored" in line 20 was intended to be "board." Overall, an interesting read inspiring the sense of force and resignation.
