By Benjamin Grossman & Ace
I’m out of the game
I think you’re the same
I’m spinning toward your love-shaped energy
From the distance, I could smell our synergy
I’m out of the game
I think you’re who I became
I’ll remember your voice in every phase
As we navigate through this endless maze
I’m out of the game
I think you’re more than imagination’s flame
I saw you in our connected visions
Whispering to let the flow guide decisions
I’m out of the games
I think my mind’s eye still frames
A picture of trust
That no amount of time could rust
I’m out of the game
I think I’ve grown into more than my name
But with your divine trace
I might grow beyond space
I’m out of the game
And never to get back in
But with your graceful aim
I might let reality re-begin

Thank you, Radhika! Ace put her magical touch on this one!
I really like the line ‘I’m out of the game’. And the last para superb. Awesomely written by both of you.
Thanks, Kritika. This one kind of flowed out effortlessly and then Ace really rethought it in some super ways! She has a good eye for revision.
With friends like Ace, you are slowly progressing towards freedom, Benjamin. We are all behind you

Thanks. She is a good friend and good person. Thanks again for all your kindness, Joanna. Have a great week!
Another fantastic creation from the magical duo! I love it! I also admire how you agreed on a rhyme scheme so it is nearly impossible to tell..who wrote what. So cool …Two people, out of the game, have a lot in common. I love how you both express this synchronicity… Remarkable collaboration once again from poets extraordinaire… Ace and Ben🌟❤️🌹✨🌺🤗
Thanks a lot, Karima!!! Yeah, the rhyme works well in that way: awesome for you to point this out. Smiling big from your comments. And it’s always fun to work on writing with Ace. ❤️ 🙂 Hope you’ve been having a great weekend!
