The game of love

by Kaleb Barton   Aug 3, 2012


You're teasing my heart
with your brains and looks.
For I am just a pawn
in a game of rooks.

I can't find any love
and i need to debate.
Should I give up,
is this checkmate?

Only in the end,
will I see the meaning in all of this.
But for now I have to guess
and take it by hit and miss.

I will eventually land one,
and when I do,
I'll finally get it,
what torn me from you.

But we don't know the conclusion,
we don't know the end.
But for now I can hope,
that you'll be more than a friend.

    You have a couple of little typos that you need to edit here and...please capitalize all your I's...it makes for better reading. Apart from that...this is nicely rhymed and the flow was really quite good. Welcome to P&Q.
