game of love

When winning is the name of the game
But find your heart exploding
And true messages are in hiding
Be wary of truths for its beguiling

I fell in love with all the right reasons
With a man so full of passion
I worshiped the grounds he stepped on
And true love we were both charmed

But as time passed and loved deeper
White and light color became darker
Passion and considerations disappeared
Replaced with disrespect and fear

Love indeed has many faces
If unguarded it can deeply blind us
Inflictions of pain and sorrow follows
Burying us in destitute

I'm careful now, I've learned well
For life can become a living hell
But as long as I'm alive l won't give up
For there's true love out there waiting to be found.

I was once told that the special all consuming passion of love, is best for an affair, because it never has to be tried and tested for life. Cannot go off the boil....
Whether unconditional love exists or not, we have to be very careful.....as love and hell can be divided by a fine line....that I do know....Kathyteddybear

Hi, lindsyjones,
Sadly, as long as love is looked at as a game, there are no winners, only losers. It's good that, though one says, I'm careful now, I've learned well, one can also say, as long as I'm alive l won't give up For there's true love out there waiting to be found. What a strong ending. Thanks for sharing.
P.S.
