Wild Card

Toss in a wild card
for the sake of variety
for competition fuels the angry fire
that rages inside me.
Her hair has waves like the ocean
while mine frizzes and frays
her eyes are crystal prisms of hope
while mine emit alarming dismay.
she smiles with sincerity,
her charms are undeniable
my mask's smile still shattered
my appeal? unrecognizable...
She appeared out of the shadows,
like a snake in the depths of night
now it's a fight to the finish,
your attention is no longer all mine.
Will she be yours,
while I'm your thing on the side?
Is it so easy to win your affection,
that she won instantly upon arrival?
You're irresistably tempting
Invading my thoughts all the time,
but this wild card was tossed in your path,
now am I the one to be used
and then tossed aside?
I grow tired and jaded
but this constant occupation,
of being second best,
of being only an object of short-term desire.
