For every person their cards are dealt
A hand that foretells their life
To tell how everything will play out
Four cards for a life, a buy in that’s forever
Mine were dealt a card from each suite
That shadows my life forever
The first was the suite of spades
The card a two representing the dual
Spades of my thoughts and actions slowly
Digging my own grave deeper and deeper
The second dealt was from the club
Suite and the Jack was flipped representing
My need and want and need of the
Club life despite not ever fitting in
The third was the diamond exclusive
And the Joker was shown, for
I’m far from the riches and the
Joker of the court
The final suite is flipped, the suite
Of hearts and the card is a king
But the king has a different
Meaning, for it is the king of broken
Hearts because what is more fitting
For me? For I’m the king of enternal
Love loss, sadness stretching to the
Ages and forever will don the crown
Of thorns and be the crowned the
*King of Broken Hearts
