A Game of Chance

An open heart of wonder
an equal part of sorrow
if given life upon breathing
then life is worth living

as today follows through to tomorrow.
sadness will wake this holds true
and everything you dream of
lie but a heartbreak away

if given a chance 
do dare  take it
choices pose two ways
for life is mere a flip side of death

and even in the shadows, you will know
which or what to choose.
It`s just a game of chance, after all 
life is fifty-fifty at best!…
