The stubborn game

There’s a funny little game we play,
Each time we meet, it goes that way—
You annoy me just to spark a smile,
An automatic tease in style.

I try to keep a happy mood,
But laughter mixes with attitude.
You poke, I pout, it’s quite a nuisance,
Yet somehow part of our amusement.

Your words can attack like playful rain,
A drizzle made of joy and pain.
I’m excited still, though I pretend,
That I won’t cave, I won’t bend.

But oh, I’m stubborn, through and through,
And so are you—it’s nothing new.
In this small war of wit and flame,
We both keep losing—and love the game.

Thank you for reading, liking, and commenting to my posts.  It is very appreciated.

I am currently raising money to pay for ongoing psychotherapy. I am a survivor of complex trauma, I have dissociative identity disorder, and complex PTSD.  Therapy can be very expensive.

If you feel like donating to my fund you can donate using pay pal. My pay pal email for donating is:

Don’t feel you have to, there is no pressure, but I’m grateful for any donations that are received.

Again thanks for visiting!
