playing for keeps

crazy how life works. the best people get hit with the worst of time. the genuine hearts are the first to be used and taken granted for, and those with sincere intentions get pushed off as too good to be true. we're stuck in a game where "winning" gets you nowhere. we have inconsistent people expecting consistency, liars complaining that nobody is true, and fakes demanding loyalty. everyone's asking for love but only afew are walking in it. for me, the game got old two disappointments ago, and i refused to cheat my future worrying about the things that i can't change from my past. 

so today, in the present i offer three promises. i'll trust you until you show me that i can't. i'll be as consistent as your efforts inspire me to be. and i'll honor your time with the same respect i give my own. no games, no gimmicks, no guile. if you can appreciate this, i can build with you. if not, i have no time for you. i've been through too much "play the same old game" just to keep getting the same draining results. i want more.. and i deserve more! so i'm holding out until i get it. because the next time i play, i'm playing for keeps.
