I didn’t play, but I still lost
He left me but I held on with all my might,
I still am, just not holding on as tight.
Why does it still hurt?
Maybe we were destined to fail,
But he walked away from where I stayed,
It was as if the devil set up a game and he played.
HOW did I still loose?
If I didn’t choose, to play?
I still am, just not holding on as tight.
Why does it still hurt?
Maybe we were destined to fail,
But he walked away from where I stayed,
It was as if the devil set up a game and he played.
HOW did I still loose?
If I didn’t choose, to play?

Great question...
A woman I knew remarked that some people are "receivers," and thus more susceptible to the influence--all too often pernicious--of mental and spiritual energy.
On the far end of the scale, what we call schizophrenia.
Why, indeed!
Enjoyed!

Beautiful words for me this morning! Sometimes it does seem as if a demon sets up the game, makes the rules, and then plays as we look on losing.

Because you are human, you have feelings.
Even though not a player, but as a spectator, you must keep your eye on the game.

Dear M,
Once again, you postulate a question I’ve been asking for centuries! I’ve told Lucifer, himself many times, I’m not playing and he still sucks me in every time.
This is a meaningful poem because it makes me think we all get stuck in the same rut, especially where love and breakups are concerned. You write this with such exquisite tenderness I could only hope to achieve. Great write. H🌷

Wow H! I cannot tell you enough how much your positive words mean to me! I try my best to write with, experiences and internal emotions.
