Dice roll
Cards turn
What you lose
Is what you earn
Place your bets
Hope for aces
With this cash
You're going places
Poker faced
Silent glance
There's the Jack
In with a chance
Sudden snag
There's the catch
Guy's got skill
That you can't match
Stare of dismay
Quiet moan
Lost the money
You head home
She's waiting there
Beside the door
Hoping for you
To have more
You can't tell her
What you've done
Go upstairs
And get the gun
The time has come
You said it would
Use it on yourself
Like you think you should

Does that long inhale of smoke Catch in your charred throat When you scowl, dark and low, Bright eyes beneath a furrowed brow, And see every line, flaw, mistake, Etched into my heart and face.
