tonight my children
the demons dance apart,
of my struggles, around this fire
i will carefully impart:

she was a queen of spades
clothed in black and art,
his fingers were quick and rough;
he was king of hearts.
her eyes were dark enough,
makeup missing, lips downcast,
yet she watched him silently
as carefully as he passed.
subtle as a thief,
his attention she would take
little did she know,
he had eyes like a snake.
every insecurity,
hope and fear,
captured in his fingers,
horribly unclear.
startled, she retreated,
her motives tossed astray,
he moved ever closer,
she smiled and ran away.
with her writing she stayed,
while he and his music killed time,
he focused on rhythm,
while she placed an ace on rhyme.
that summer was hazy,
his gaze was sultry,
she wondered, then;
can love drown poetry?
as shyly as they come,
she murmured about her past,
he grinned encouragement;
the cards played at last.

mist curls softly around quiet woods,
bitten lips begin false history,
warmth rolls closer like a curious child;
let night consume you in its mystery.
hope you like this (:

P.S

queen of spades = 10
king of hearts = 10
ace = 1

10 + 10 + 1 = 21
thus, winning the game. ;)
