Lost Happiness

It started with trust in you

The trust was shattered

It was the intense love

That was manipulated

It was the platonic relation

That was compromised

Someone had played a game

And was joined by others

For fun and enjoyment

There were many calculations

That we failed to realize

That we failed to think of

It was a battle of emotions

The battle between head and heart

The head won it all the way

It was a battle of feelings

The battle between desire and wish

The wishes won all the way

The battle was lost

So was the happiness

For some, it was a life lost

For some, it was a life won

For some, it was everything

For some, just another instance

The losers were emotional fools

The winners thought with a logic

The losers were dependent

The winners were happier

The losers comprised self-respect

The winners rejoice their pride
