I was completely unprepared
Because I was truly unaware
That love could be
Such a brutal game
Of hide
And seek
I counted and sought
For the other and found
Absolutely nothing
But my broken heart
In the darkness
And my self esteem
Broken apart
By the notion that now
What was found
Is now lost
Without the hopes
Of being loved
I paid double the cost
For I had neither love nor hope
Neither dreams fulfilled
Or joy distilled
I had lost the game
And was penalized
For life
