BLACKJACK

~

She is gone.

Gone to where? To some place the hearts goes.

She followed her heart to the one with deceitful trails.

Filled with illusions of the truth.

The one she thought will fill the void of her thirst for true love.

She has been desperate for the one.

He seemed perfect, bright and ambient as the morning sun.

He looked like a penguin in a jacket

The center of attraction like a royal chandelier

He is a bird

He is just a feeling for her heart to escape.

Yet she soaked herself in his pool of inevitable doom

She had no control of her feelings

Fragile and transparent she was

She knew he would be the death of her

She gambled her heart and lost it to a black jack

He broke her

Shattered her wholeness into uneven pieces

She is unattractive to her suitors

Her confidence diminishes

Her poker face gives her away

One more try she said

Giving her all

All or nothing

Her heart beat is off the chart but no one will ever hear

Hit me she said

Tapping the table for a card.

She inhales deeply

So much tension in the atmosphere

And releases her breath slowly

She opens up her card

She beat the dealer

She tricked him

Her game was the long con

In the end the winning only matters

She is only 21
