A Gamble For The Maiden

by @SchmidtJenko

I've been thinking about it all day long, From the moment I first saw your photos, To the moment I made my first move, Anxiety was plaguing itself all over myself. I was on cloud ten if it ever existed, You played along like we were more than acquaintances, And fell real hard for sweet praises, The long-term settings were already on preset. I fell too hard for you, Implicating severe insanity to me, An insanity that cost me my dignity, As you revealed that was only a one night stand, Although indirectly it was still a clarion call for me, But to no avail your bizzare qualities got me shook. Trading my dignity for your leaky attention, I wasn't the jack of all trades, Like the jack on the cards I felt more of myself, You sent me packing when you left me for dead, For now I would carry a knapsack with a clear statement, I have fallen so hard for your true beauty my fair maiden, But gambled everything risking to get it. In the end, The house always wins. I was the biggest loser.
