out of the game

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

Ace + Benjamin

And here’s the image version 💚💙

A big thank you to my dear friend, Ben, for working with me again (of course, it rhymes 😊)!! It was truly amazing…this piece was born so organically and came to life in such a synchronistic way. We hope this inspires you to step out of the game and let reality re-begin!!

  1. 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🌟❤️🌹✨🌺 PS love the image version too:):)❤️

  11. It was nice seeing another collaboration with Ben – you two seem to work really well together 😊 Hmmm… interesting! I think that this poem is slightly more open to interpretation than your usual ones. This is how I saw it [it may not be how you envisioned it all, but this is just what I saw]: I saw it as someone who was out of the game of cheating, dating, or casual relationships and they’re now ready to fall deeply in love with their partner – and they think that their partner might feel the same way too. Up until this point, love was mostly a game to them. But they’re ready for it not to be anymore.

    • Aww thank you so much!! I’m so happy to hear that as it always a treat to work with Ben!! He’s amazingly talented and I love the zone we get into. This one is definitely more open, thoughtful of you to notice! Thank you for sharing your view 🙏🏻. For me, games come in so many different things…the game of reality, the game of life, the game of relationships etc. For me, this is about stepping out of the game of a certain reality/friendship and then realizing the Universe, my soul, is always truly there for me, so I can put my full trust in it. I can’t speak for Ben, but I know it’s probably different for him.

      Appreciate you and your thoughtful support, you always leave the best comments!!! Lots of love 🖤🤗
