Over You

I did it all, 
Tried to show that I,
Am really ten feet tall,
Close to twenty letters,
Poems and songs should of showed you,
How better,
I am, but still you ran,
Can, you understand what I,
Wanted to show,
How far I could go,
To have you in the passenger side,
Of my little blue ride,
To walk with your hand tied,
In the warmth of mine,
If you open your eyes,
You would of seen,
All the things our hearts could have been,
To each other’s,
Why the hell did I bother,
One minute you were receptive,
The next you’re not,
What the hell ran through your thoughts.

In the end  it doesn’t hurt so bad,
Actually  I am glad,
That your true colors came through,
I can see through,
The games you tried to play,
Every way,
You twisted and turned,
The things you did that burned,
A hole in my soul,
You took cheap shots at the holes in my world,
Dug in with your claws of deception,
Masked with good feeling perception,
On my part,
Ripped a couple more holes in my heart.
Those I wanted you to mend,
All you did was bend,
Then break my heart in two,
Laughing at what you were able to do.
Thinking I was at your beck and call,
Just because one day I came to fall,
In love with you.

Who gave you the power you think you have,
The game and the way,
You think you can play,
It all so well,
All you did was catch me off guard,
But when the game stepped up,
From submission to a man on a mission,
You called it role and attitude,
All I did was curb the latitude 
That I gave to you,
Taking control of the power,
That you thought you had,
Just cause I told you I had it bad,
It is really oh so sad,
I guess I do play the game well,
Look how it all fell,
Into place,
In the end I won the race,
Over you in a day,
Hey I must not of been feeling OK,
In your mind that day I just walked out,
With no turning around,
No indication I heard any sound,
Of you calling my name,
What a (cuss)ing shame,
An end to the game.
