The game not played

by Hard2Heal   Mar 14, 2005


A baby's born
an elder dies
the truth is told
to fix old lies

a friend is made
as one is lost
a gift is given
a simple cost

a girl is loved
who once was hated
the love was lost
a memory faded

a prayers said
a sin is made
this is life
the game not played

    this kinda confused me.. but the more i read it the more i understood.. it's just that the transition from the girl hated then loved then hated seems quick, cuz of the form constraints, and so is hard to grasp to me.. if it is indeed the girl's love who is lost.. maybe use "her love" instead of "the love".. thats a bit more clear... i liked the whole idea of this.. good flow and good content that stayed on the same set of idea the whole way thru.. goodjob.. pZ out =O)
