You play with my heart just like you play sports.
Throw my feelings around just like a football.
Go through ups and downs like a dribbling basketball.
Cached me in your baseball mitten when I needed you to.
Smiled your dazzling smile towards me from the field.
Broke free from me when you wanted to, just like you kicked the soccer ball in the soccer field.
You played with me heart just like you were able to play sports.
But you're not just a player anymore; now you're the coach...
The coach of pain and misery.
