The Gamble of Trust
That mesmerizing smile, or was it those dazzling eyes? One glance, I'm melting. It's more—it has to be. My trust is worth more than a pretty face. It must be the kindness, the way you made me feel safe. Finally, you were here, right in front of...

Premium Member After the lie, truth is a gamble
After the lie, truth is a gamble, A shattered glass from which my thirst longs to drink, I know the edges of the heart can be cut, Yet still, I seek sincerity as if it's a treasure. Ask me why trust is a sandcastle, Why "I promise" is just a noise in my silence, Why I reread old conversations like poems, Searching...

Premium Member WHEN WE TAUGHT OUR GRANDCHILDREN HOW TO GAMBLE
I ran across some photos the other day hanging off an old branch on our family tree… and as photos often do they awoke a memory in me. I love how that happens…sometimes as down memory lane I ramble a simple photograph or two can make a memory unscramble. It was the night we taught our grandchildren to play poker (If...

THE GAMES ARE OVER
Once upon a time, I played Against myself - and there, I stayed... Displaying a no-leaf clover. Nowadays, the games are over. Previously, help I sought Through counselor full of support. Assisting me to self-exclude, She helped to change my attitude. So many places I have been... Sitting at a game machine. Both online and at a venue... Gambling upon the menu. I am not certain or...

Life is a gamble And we are all bettors But whatever is the game we play We must not bet what we can't afford to lose We must not bit more than what we can chew We must not eat more than what we can swallow We must not run a race that we can't...

Do Not Gamble with Time
Do not gamble your time away with the indecisiveness you play. The heavier resolve you pray, the longer will it take to pay. Don't just waste your time today. You have to move and chase your prey. You may be worried about delays, but beyond that, you will be okay. Listen to what time conveys. See what it wants to portray. You are with time...

A Gamblers Game
Love is a gambler’s game Either way it goes, You’ll never be the same I gambled half my pot And sent out my greatest ship But unlike what I thought, Cards of hearts were never flipped Soon I’m down to metal But I'll win it just you wait! I'll get a fortune settle Maybe she’s just late… I gambled with nothing left But gave up my addiction I...

Gamblin' Zoo
"Hit me!" it's blackjack all day long In a dingy zoo type sing-a-long and since you can never eat just one It seems those chips have all but gone! Bluffing there like a daft giraffe Just because you stuck your neck out Still showed your true spots, no doubt So switch it up to Texas holdem get the laundry done and fold em'! Or...

We Gamble Away With Our Life
We gamble away with our life then we cry and raise our hands for mercy As we sink away our life boats, we extremely try in vain to row to safety In the market of sin we remain without any sense and never once think Eyes book wisdom are given to us, but we seem to avoid all...
