Losing games
1) Willing Fate
Life …its will to win Get set…go!! Over the obstacles…run run Racing fate… Falling back…catching up…overtaking Aha! There is the finishing line …Just a little farther says fate…. Cheering …jeering Push it…push it Photo finish! Fate triumphs!! Because it decides the end
2)
She and me She smiled when I smirked at her flights of fantasy "Wait", she said…"listen to me" And I did…foolish me…inspite of myself She didn’t get mad…no, she just hmm-ed And got even Today I stand at the crossroads where I had met her On my way to higher goals Where she had pointed out to me all I’d feigned not to see Now she runs the race that I’d almost won And I’m here…staring at the sign to nowhere
3) Entrapment
Should have known better Than to rush in…where I had always feared to tread But then I am no angel…and Satan has his ways Now what? Waking up in a maze of my own making Unmapped territory And no game plan Bail me out, you devil!
