I have an idea
Lets play a game.
You pretend that you care
And I'll do the same.
We can play during the day
Or we can play at night.
You don't care what I say
Which led to that fight.
I have an idea
Lets play a game.
You pretend you have a heart
And I'll do the same.
We can play while we're awake
Or we can play while we sleep.
You took that knife
And planted it down deep.
I have an idea
Lets play a game.
You pretend you are kind
And I'll do the same.
We can play while we walk
Or we can play while we crawl.
I let you hold my heart
But you let it fall.
I have an idea
Lets play a game.
You pretend you can say the truth
And I'll do the same.
We can play in the sun
Or we can play in the rain.
All those lies
And all that pain.
I have an idea
Lets play a game.
You stop pretending
And I'll do the same.
You don't care enough to play
Your heart has nothing to say.
To be kind you were never shown
And truthless is how you are known.
Very interesting poem. I am disappointed that you didn't include notes about why you wrote it. I'm sure the story behind it is fascinating.

I would like to translate this poem
Had to come back and read this interesting poem again. Still disappointed not to see a poet's note. Oh, well...
