A game of to be or not be
A game that is perceived as a childish fantasy
A game to see who will be their meant to be
Their true love romantically or platonically
The one that can take them away from all of the insanity
A game that is never seen as something that can harvest pain
A joke some may say
But many take this in a different way
They play so religiously
And fantasize who that person will be
Never ending chains dangling by their feet
Lacerations deep enough to start a sea
The heart is a fragile place
Not just something to have that can feel no pain
But a place that can harbor more than just pain
More than just agony
This beast will manifest into a black hole devouring everything that will stand in its way
This is a game that can cause someone to slip into a never-ending nightmare
Constantly reminding them they will never be loved by the one that they "love"
A game that causes heartbreak
Broken souls
And lost ambition
This is a game that turns childish dreams into a reality
A dangerous game of love me love me not
One that will cause many to change who they are
And make these games into a constant reminder of what they could not be
This is a dangerous game indeed
