games YOU play

You broke me and I still crave you,
Shattered into multiple pieces yet each screams for you,
Funny enough, I know better yet I still dance to your tune
Maybe I don't know better after all
Toxicity innate much?
Or is it you that scrambled, jumbled, tumbled and mumbled with my own existence, my feelings
Invading my mind in the worst ways,
Controlling my body in scary ways,
Luring my soul to oblivion,
It's the games you play,
50 shades of you and still counting
How do you manage to possess me in ways that don't describe as subtle
Maybe this is my hell
Waiting for you to show up not off
Hating when you show off not up
Hoping you will step up,
Why am I still clinging to my hell?
My bones scream that I should run the other way,
But I keep going in circles,
When does it end? Where?
heart on a sleeve, still beating for you
Did we muster the games all too well
A game of egos, games people play
Maybe too addicted, too late
Tell me, is it the same to you?
