Love’s casino has winners and losers.
A raucous roulette wheel spinning around.
Where it lands depends on how one chooses,
but taking that big chance might just astound.
Love is a craps game when throwing the dice,
tumultuously rolling to a stop.
Sometimes it’s failure ending with snake eyes.
Winners keep trying to avoid the flop.
Love is a one-armed bandit’s teasing ploy,
making promises that will rob you blind.
Playing all night makes you its worn-out toy,
or the happy ending you hoped to find.
Losing is a dark and cold walk of shame.
Winning is the light of love’s endless game.
