A three sided spawn, 

Three people confined,

To love,

To hate,

To sadness,

And to regret.

Knowing only two of the three,

Can come out on top,

I hope that it isn't me,

I don't want it to be me,

I do not want to win this war of love and pain.

I have been told I don't deserve it,

And even without those words,

I know I was not meant for it,

To be loved,

Sadly cannot always last,

To the anger of jealousy.

I want the happiness of others,

But not of myself,

I don't want to make my own,

Because it would be selfish of me,

To tear away,

A growing bud, 

Of a newly born tree.

Why do you say,

It is I who needs to win,

What have I done to deserve it?

What have you done to not?

I don't know,

Why people say,

I am the one with pain.

It has been inside,

Since the day I met life,

Never wanting,

To put my own happiness,

Before anyone else's,

Never knowing,

Why or how, 

I was capable of love.

I guess I now see,

What the game of love is,

But yet I still see,

Me putting others before myself.

It was what I was told to do,

And it is what I will do,

Whether or not,

I find understanding,

In someone caring.

These three sided spawns,

Is a hateful game to play,

Yet I plan to lose,

Somehow,

If this makes any sense.

Yes I might feel sadness,

Over the choice that I make,

But wouldn't it be best?

To put another's love for another,

Higher than your own?
