I wrote a poem in class

GAMBLE

I remember it all so well

The day I seemed to no longer care

Thoughts and emotions that left me to dwell

Powerless against these demons whom I stare

Remember the words that you told me

About us lasting an infinity

It all seemed unreal so I believed

But I was so blind that I was being deceived

The time spent with you was all pointless

Now all that is left is this strange emptiness

This eternal flame that once was is no more

It followed you as you walked out the door

Time heals all wounds some say

Even the memories have washed away

I no longer believed in such fable

Because in the end it is just….. A Gamble!
