Hide And Seek

by The Angel of Secrets   Aug 23, 2008


Do you remember as a kid you used to play hide and seek?
Hiding anywhere you could, in every hidden little creek.
But as one grows old the rules aren't the same,
And I don't want to be a part of your stupid little game.

Feelings aren't do be trifled with, and you can't think they are,
If you think life's a game, you'll never go very far.
You say you can't feel a thing, well guess what, other do,
How the hell do you think people can now trust in you?

I know you're lying when you tell people that you can't feel,
Cause I saw the word "lonely" on your arm, and that was very real.
You are blinded by egoism, don't think your the only one,
Just admit you did wrong, I was right, what you did is done.

Don't think you're so goddamn special, you're not the only one who's scared,
Just make it easy for me man, just admit you never cared.
I'm not kidding when I don't say I have an entire life of time
I can't control my own health, life isn't mine.

I'm dying "friend", put that into your twisted little mind,
I can't look for something that I know I'll never find.
You tell me you love me and then you dare to walk away?
And here I am, not even knowing if I'll have another day.

I can't waste the little I have left for someone who can't love me,
I'm not going to change into that friend that you wish for me to be.
Just tell me you hate me, just tell me you'll lie,
Just tell me you don't care if I live or I die.

Don't tell me you love me if you really don't,
Don't tell me you'll change if you know you won't.
Don't run and hide if you truly want to be my friend,
Because friends stick with each other, through death, to the final end.

I don't have the time to nod and smile, or try to believe in you,
I'm gonna live and I'm gonna smile because I freaking deserve too.
We aren't kids any longer, things are not as they used to before,
I don't have the time to play hide and seek anymore.

    I really enjoyed reading this. The rhymes were excellent, and it flowed good, too.

    "Feelings aren't do be trifled with, and you can't think they are,
    If you think life's a game, you'll never go very far.
    You say you can't feel a thing, well guess what, other do,
    How the hell do you think people can now trust in you?"

    -- In the third line, I think you meant to put "others", instead of just "other".

    "I know you're lying when you tell people that you can't feel,
    Cause I saw the word "lonely" on your arm, and that was very real.
    You are blinded by egoism, don't think your the only one,
    Just admit you did wrong, I was right, what you did is done."

    -- Again, the third line, "your" should be "you're".

    *Those are the only things I noticed that should be fixed. The poem is really good. Keep it up.

    Five out of five. [5/5]
