Mind Games

You say one thing

But mean another

I feel so confused

These mind games

Torture me everyday

How can one heal?

When all the pain

Keeps shadowing me

Chasing me around

Memories so strong

I can't escape them

And this I must say

You had me fooled

Oh my heart, so naïve

Like an infant so weak

For it's mothers breast

Insecurities embrace me

The hope for change

Dwindles away rapidly

Accepting it all as before

Like one expects the rain

Along with black clouds

Curses, those damn games

Those mind games you play

My mind so wrapped up

In this game of confusion

Playing so hard at a game

Which I may never win.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Please excuse my mis-use of punctuation, it is quite lacking. I might get around to editing.  This is about, the people out there who choose to screw around with ones feelings and emotions.Playing these misleading mind games.

Hey Robin, how are ya. I can't believe nobody put a comment about this poem. I love it!

Don't edit it because its format perfectly matches the confusion/chaos of mindgames.
