Now And Again

Now and again you cross my mind
and then I begin to reminisce
all the good things in my life you missed
you just gave up and dismissed
me
you didn't see all that could be
like me
if only you'd stayed
instead of playing the games you constantly played
so carelessly
recklessly
abusing the best of me that I gave to you
I treated you with great value
but you treated me as less than zero
so selfish you became useless
to me
and then just a memory
that I think about now and again
about what could have been
if you hadn't been so dumb
but instead you chose to play
a game that never can be won
