New Poetry....Not bad for 3:30 in the AM

A little new poetry. Took me about twenty minutes. I'm sure it could use some fine-tuning. It's not dedicated to anyone in particular, or about anyone. Maybe just all the dudes and triflin females in my past that didn't deserve me/my friendship. But it's not that serious.


Untitled --> (This one may not make sense to you, but try)
Confusion and bullshit, lies and deception,
Misleading figures pushing me in the wrong directions.
False advertisements and fraudulent faces,
People keeping me from God's good graces.
Propaganda, forgery, high hopes for nothing,
A dozen royal flushes, yet everyone's bluffing.
Illusions and games, mind tricks and cons,
One minute your there and the next, your gone.
Deceit and friends who are all malicious,
Believing in words that turn out fictitious.

I took a left before I went right,
Out of mind, out of thought, out of sight.
The past is the past and the present's untold,
A new route's been taken, time to travel new roads.
Destiny's, prophecies, future uncertain,
All's well once the back mind has closed it's curtains.
Stories unwritten and uncharted land,
New experiences in the palm of my hand.
Learning and growing and living my life,
Leaving the hateful, the negative and trife.


Game Over
My mistakes and my downfalls were somehow your triumphs,
And despite the love I gave to you it never was enough.
You held me down for way too long, I never thought you would
Take advantage of my kindness just because you could.
Ain't no need for apologies, don't call me just because
You want to see if I'm still searching and looking for your love.
If you haven't heard from me and don't see me for a while,
Know that I've moved on somehow and no longer miss your smile.
And when you realize what you had, and what you threw away,
Remember that you had the choice, YOU left me in dismay.
See now I've found what I really lost; I found MYSELF and I,
I don't need your sorry ways, I found strength in your goodbye.
My life is moving upward and I've found my sanity,
I know in time that you will see that what you're missing now, is me.
