I'm On TOP of MY Game THIS Time Around

A Poem

You think you have me all figured out,

And that's just what I want you to think-

But I can assure you without a doubt;

That nothing is what you think!

~

You've taught me a lot from my own mistakes,

And from that I managed to learn-

That with every little step that I seem to take;

I can guarantee I'm not going to be the one burned!

~

I've let you in so many times before,

Always giving you chance after chance-

But this time I'm not the revolving door;

It's a different circumstance!

~

You want ME to change my ways,

You want ME to undo ALL the wrongs-

You want ME to be the one that says:

It's always ME saying the same old songs!

~

That's all it's ever been about,

YOU making a fool out of ME-

And then I'm the one who speaks out;

And I realized that's all it's ever going to be!

~

YOU want what is best for YOU,

YOU don't care WHO you hurt along the way-

It doesn't matter if anyone gets her too;

Just so long as you have your fame everyday!

~

You've made your peace with the Planet,

You're happy with your choices-

For you nothing can get better-can it?

Are you listening to your inner voices?

~

You have caused so much pain,

And not just to me and you know it-

But what else have you gained?

This fame is all you want to show for it?

~

I've never seen someone rearrange truths like you,

I've never seen someone survive on pain-

I've never seen someone who's been so blue;

And I've never seen someone act so insane!

~

But you've managed to pull it all off somehow,

Heart break, hatred, everything bad you can ever recall-

Turned into your own GOLD MINE-into your own lil show;

And made everyone else around you appalled!

~

You might think YOU have them fooled,

But everyone knows better by now-

They just don't want to be too cruel;

Because they know you will have a royal cow!

~

And if they open their mouth to you,

They know what you can be like-

So they'd just rather deal with you too;

Rather than create something that isn't right!

~

Your name should come with a warning,

Your fame is as fake as your friendship and love-

I'm sick of you acting like you're nothing but charming;

It's time reality gave you a shove!

~

You are nothing like you pretend,

For those that believe that you are-

Need a swift kick in the rear-end;

Because you aren't anything but a farce!

~

Someday word will REALLY get out,

And when it does I will be right there-

I will be the one laughing while you pout;

I will be the one smiling while you swear!

~

You might have ruined me once or twice,

But you will never ruin me again-

Your time is coming and it won't be nice;

And then it will be my name on your lips yet again!

~

But I promise you,

The next time you say my name-

It will ALL be TRUE;

Because you will not ruin my game!

~

:-P

YOU have put me on TOP of my game this time around!

If anything is going to happen-

It won't be ME landing on the ground;

I promise you, I will NOT lose to YOU this time around!

:-P
