Best House Of Cards Poems

I thought we’d be together,
Just you and I forever,
Building our castle of dreams.
We couldn’t be divided--
Our hopes and goals united--
Was a house of cards it seems.
I can’t believe it.

I don’t believe you’d leave me
After all that we’ve been through.
I can’t believe you’ve given up.
Can’t accept...

I forget that I’m in trapped in a house of cards
until the wind comes blasting through
And I’m left again with nothing
Nothing but grief and this pile of all that I knew

I had to forget how much I cared for you
Something no one should ever have...

I've been living in the house of cards
That I can almost know your move
Cause I've seen how the cards shuffle 
And how the games have been played 

I learnt all this while growing up in the house 
By age of seven, I could keep a...

House of cards

I.

I fear
the clock
renders
neither mirror
nor dull glass.
Like the Lilly
it moves
and grows
and dies
unseen
by our
distracted
eyes,
telling me
nothing,
moment by moment.
Time, 
her only 
transgression
is death--
quick,
fluid,
emaciated,
withering and
vast.

II.

I will touch the sun
and every 
gray
will taste 
my eternity.

I will build
Babylon
with an
edict,
with an
imperial
deck of cards,
screaming,
hissing,
blind,
knowing.

You taught me, 
after all.

III.

Prince, 
ha-satan,
you
laid 
the ruin track
for...

The Billionaire Boys Club was spurned.
On debut night, it crashed and burned.
It stars Kevin Spacey
who’s lewd, crude, and racy--
a predator, as we have learned.

What goes around DOES come around.
This adage is true, we have found.
So many are paying       ...

They have so chipped at the foundation there is little left
Taking Gods' Word from this nation is like a constant theft
Just take a look around as seemingly every Nation is at war
Ourselves now so morally unsound and especially at our core

His Grace since lifted with...

Have you ever considered how delicate we humans are
How fragile and complicated compared to say, a car.
I got an image in my head while reading scripture,
Of a house of cards all balanced against each other.
Then Satan comes along to blow the house down,
And Jesus rebuilds...

this house of cards
I can't build faster
each one placed spells
sweet disaster
keep on building, higher it goes
standing up on my tiptoes

the wind blows hard
it stays in place
feeling your breeze
blowing on my face
house of cards is holding strong
one on one, on and on

the final card is put...

I won all my trophies 
In a blood stained dress
Middle of the stairs 
I tripped, they stared 
Every step you take 
Is a cut in vain 
So realize before it’s too late 
The whispers, the laughing 
The screams, the war 
The phantom songs 
Playing in...

House of cards, no agent can sell
Sulfuric regret all I smell
Laid flat with quiet violence
By one soft breath of pure silence

Building it shouldn't be so hard
The joke's on me with no discard
Loyalty my own worst penance
By one soft breath of pure silence

Was told triangles built...

I am an ace of diamonds
and you are an ace of spades
together we are two of a pair
like a king and a queen
living it up like a pair of jokers
inside a house of cards...

I once built a house of cards.
At the top's the queen of hearts.
Diamonds glitter, clubs grow like clovers 
Spades decorate the castle all over.

Carefully constructed, everything in place
My home is perfect from the top cards to the base.
I am its chief, its builder and king
I...

tucked away in your castle
master of the universe
isolated bunkered
guarded and surrounded
basking in delusions

one wild card and suddenly
your masterplan does not compute
so beneath you
your house of cards
tumbles tumbles tumbles
without net or safeguard

question is
do you dare
to reinvent yourself
