I'm eager to play games with you
Nothing intense, no injuries involved
Something fun and simple
Maybe 'Uno' or 'Twister'
Yet these things you do not seem to understand
How do I explain? How do I teach?
When all you've ever been used to is 'fencing'
Fencing with one who left you
Left you with scars that refuse to heal
Left you with indelible marks
Indelible marks that I cannot compete with
That I will not compete with
I will not compete
You refuse to be taught
You refuse to be fixed
You remain 'en garde'
So I will not compete
Not with you
Not with your ghosts
Not with the one who haunts you
I will not
Compete
I will not compete
You refuse to be taught
You refuse to be fixed
You remain 'en garde'
So I will not compete
Not with you
Not with your ghosts
Not with the one who haunts you
I will not
Compete

Need i say more. Not everything has to be a competition, not everything has to be work.

True dat! Sometimes, people have to wrestle with their own demons first. Hopefully they can deal with it before drawing you in :)
ReplyDeleteSome people carry around old luggage just for the thrill of it and the sympathy they get. It is best not to compete with such.
ReplyDeleteNo WORLD CUP MATTA! lol
ReplyDelete@ Maxine... n isnt it a bitch when they dun deal with their shit first, before tryna draw u into their hot mess? but dats the way it goes, selfishness, its human nature, no1 cares who gets hurt, or maybe they just pray no1 does.
ReplyDelete@ Lyrix... lol, the thrill n the sympathy eh. u can only feel sorry for some1 for so long. Sometyms u jus feel like screaming at ur friends, 'move on, damn it, just move on already!', but then what are friends for? If not to listen to eachothers bullshit and offer advice and support.
@ Mys.Tery... the sad thing is, it is always a world cup.lol.until people get tired and too injured to bother kicking that Jambulani, it will remain The World Cup. hehe
