The Great Gamble
A Poem About Love By: Ken Cruz
Love the great gamble
Stakes to great to handle
But to live without taking a chance
To go to the ball and not dance
To Iive without experiencing
Not knowing what your missing
Going thru life living but not existing
Pain comes and goes but we need to keep persisting
Opposition comes but we need to keep resisting
Otherwise we are just zombies lost to the land
For how can we truly experience growth if not with someone at our hand
Looking back at shared times
Like footprints in the sand
And of course the wind will come and blow away some tracks and memories like old debris
And some love with leave a bitter taste like rotten fruit or a stagnant disease
But I ask you this
Just because one meal leaves a bitter taste
Do you cease to eat?
Keep the faith like a flickering ember on a cold winters night
For true love and passion an inferno could ignite
