All Is Fair In Love and War

Sinking into you is something I find myself doing all too often. If only you made this easier by being ignorant or oblivious. Instead you wear the gentlemen well and I can never fault you for that. But you started sinking into me first, it's as if you tricked me. Slinking in the most subtle ways that I didn't even notice. Or does this just in fact, signify exactly how predictable I am? Am I really so easy to figure out? But then, I cant be so simple. After all, it did take you years with no sudden movements, no alarming sounds. Looking back I am amazed at your diligence and unwavering patience. Tell me, do I even know you at all? Or is it then that I am just so obliviously self absorbed that I really didn't notice our intimacy? Our feelings that I wish I could flee from as they speak a truth not even I can say.. I'm out of my element here and falling short on how to best you or even compete. I see you running the table in this game we have been playing. I sink more, silenced in awe over your undeniable victory. You, without a doubt hold the power and I can't even be a poor loser. I guess all is fair in Love and War.
