#WritcoPoemPrompt96

You made a remark remember, to enable my Fabled and fading memory. On your mark
Get set and go. Now I know now I can't return
About face, two faces both show and tell lies

Try as you might to roll your snake eyes at me
I bet the line every time as the dealer says push
I was dealt 2 queens to start, one of hearts red
the other of clubs as my lonely heart hurts

It's a game of chance when we gamble on love
But the house always wins, so why do we play
Russian roulette with a loaded gun. Bang baby
maybe u just shot the moon n showed ur hand

Too soon it's never too late in the game to fold
Im told Im 2 old to be pot committed so easily
Still I call your bluff and raise all in only to lose
To your ace of heart breakers and ace of spades

Well Played
