Gamble

Apologise with lies, you rolled the dice
played your cards, now debt is due time to pay the price
your foolish pride, nowhere left to hide
gamble with your life, almost died
now death stalks in the shadows by your side

You aimed too high, the stakes too vast
lost so much more than you ever amassed
the chances were low, the odds against
you played with fire, now the Devil's incensed

You bet against the house, all going as planned
yet still the skeletal man holds the best hand
he is a whizz at poker, does the biz at chess
there isn't a game yet where he doesn't impress

Please gamble responsibly, don't bet your life on it
don't play against death, his prize is counterfeit
don't play the slots with the last penny that you've got
the prize never enough, enjoy the love, the true jackpot

Thanks For Reading.

Peace & Love.

Kyle.
