Gambler

I placed a bet on life,

And said “fifty guineas” on number 11,

The man smiled and spun the wheel,

My life spin around,

Along with the wheel,

And the twitter as it stopped,

On number 11,

The man still smiling,

Said, “would you like to move to the next table?”

And we moved along,

What do we play here for?

We play here for love,

I said “one hundred guineas on number 11”,

I feel lucky today,

The man smiled,

Said, I am sorry,

Minimum bet on this table is your soul,

I am on a winning streak,

So I bet my soul, my heart, my life,

On my lucky number 11,

On the table of love,

And the wheel kept spinning,

Spinning my soul, my heart, my life,

And everything I hold dear,

The man stood smiling,

Like a messenger from hell,

I stood close to the table,

My heart beating fast,

And the wheel stopped,

At number 1,

The man still smiling,

took away my soul, my heart, my life,

everything I hold dear,

I had given all I have got,

On a loosing game…..

End of Innocence

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust,

A man was born yesterday, lived today, died tomorrow,

All that's left is dust in the wind,

Earth and sky, he lived somewhere in between,

Lived moments, cried a lifetime,

Mistakes, achievements,

Laughter, tears,

Smiles, grins,

Smirks, quirks,

Destiny and fate,

The asshole,

That sinned, lied, cheated and cried,

But he will be forgiven,

For beneath it all, there was a heart,

That cried to be free,

To be loved, and held,

For whatever it’s is worth

Next birth, if there is ever one,

He will be different, what the world wanted him to be

As he was told, that he will be loved,

For what he is and who he is,

As long as he is perfect…..
