you deal.
i will take the hearts
you the spades
i told you i would win
but sometimes i may lose
and your hands upon the cards?
nothing less than
the sexy i need to erase
the moment we find ourselves trapped
she plays a crafty hand
and we all know
she’s the shark
and we can never win
only give in to the sin
of every last moment
(that is this moment)
and the one where you lost him
and the one where i lost myself
and together?
all of us?
we may just find
the selves we were searching for
those long lost days
when absentee love
was not enough
to soothe our souls
