This game people play, it is not good for my health.  I'm just trying to maintain with the cards I was dealt in a hand unfairly, an unstoppable cycle, where you may either go the distance, you are the bluffer and I am the ace in spades.  Theoretically in the game, I am the winner, but what are you initially winning if you are the one that is getting played?  It is funny you can get on your knees and pray, but this cycle starts all over again.  Maintaining the same old thing, if you look in the mirror and see someone else compared to the You that you saw earlier that day, would you be reclusive to talk?  What would be your answer? What would you say?Could you even explain?  “No.”  I may have burned in this fire, but you smelled the smoke and “what?”  You thought it was a joke?  You could have warned me. -Emmanuel ????????

I came up with this poem because I feel like misleading someone from the beginning when you knew your initial intentions is wrong.
