Games

Lie. Act. Deceive. It’s what you’re best at. The talent everyone knows you knows for. You’re the best player in the game.

But please know, while you’re playing basketball with her heart, making her jump from emotion to emotion, she’s playing monopoly. Oh yes, she’s playing you too. She’s picking and choosing what you see and making you believe you’re the best of the best.

While you spoon feed her your lies, she acts as if she’s affected. While you act as if you love her, she deceives you into thinking she believes you.

Go on and play your games. Plan your next move and the next and the one after that. But as you’re planning moves, she’s already won.

It’s true… you’re the best player in the game. But she built the games you learned to play.
