Premium Member She gambled
She gambled on you She walked a bridge too far You didn't feel it true It was too high a bar She could have tried talking That way she would've known Behind your infatuation Real affection hadn't grown She thought there was a bond A mystical dream But the wizard lost his wand You were just a prop in...

Common Sense Returns
The country spoke in numbers strong rejecting notions, we knew were wrong. Porous borders against our laws, defund police, those thoughts are flawed. In regards to the letters, DEI and CRT return to the alphabet where you should be. Retail theft, okay with them no consequence, they steal again. Gender care or mutilate, once its done, it's too late! Men compete in women's sports, dashing hopes and wins...

Premium Member Common Sense

It once mitigated anger and greed; lately, however, it's been a no-show. I pray for its return in thought and deed; if it's still relevant, I'd like to know. It can untangle impossible...
