This is a gamble Yes, I’m playing ‘words’ Life can turn out to be such a shamble That makes the playing hard Some have more excitement than others… But we are still playing the same odds We have been explained to the truth But not necessarily in the same words If you happened to realize that you had fulfilled your purpose, would you request an honourable death? Or find a second calling? Would you cash in your chips? Or have another go at it? Another go… again All in? Sometimes one needs to just take the leap Thinking twice could just be an excuse to keep stalling Taking the leap and ascending to a higher level, or thinking… ‘At least I tried… I am content with that fact, despite the fact that I’m falling’ Either way, one cannot have another ‘today’ Another ‘now’ Another ‘present’ Appreciate it today Appreciate it now Heard this in a movie once… ‘Now is a gift, that’s why they call it the present’ These come in no order or rehearsed flair I’m gambling… I’m playing ‘words’ With my thoughts most recent Yes, I dare.
