Have I Lost Or Have You? Poem by Rebecca Pepper

I sit here and wonder ‘did you really care? '
Do you think what you do is truly fair?
Or is it something you will later regret
Or will you fool yourself and just forget?

Come, tell me your stories, I await your tales
Fables of demons and angels but not of your fails
No, never a whisper of the lives you have torn asunder
Not a sign of your past until that fateful little blunder

You see, as I sit in my house no longer a home
I don't feel so played nor so very alone
As I do when you whisper in my ear
Telling me of your deepest darkest ‘fear'

But to you it's all a game, a play of words
Words that you ensure remain so unheard
Such a fickle little mind must you possess
But of course how could I expect anything less

My money and wealth or my heart?
Which one first will you try to tear apart?
Because you must be bored by now am I right?
Well my dear, you're losing this fight

My money is all gone, you shall have none
The charities are very grateful for your little con
And my heart? It is already torn from when I found you
So now you are left with nothing as my lips turn blue

Now let me ask you this before I pass: who has played who?
