The Gamble

Tweet

I'll bet your skin feels like fire, I'll bet your hair smells like candles. I'd wager you'd love me, I'd wager you're intense to handle. I could gamble my life, To win your attention. I'll bet I would win, I know I have pure intention. But gambling is foolish, And what if I lost? I'd lose my whole life, And that's too great a cost. I'll love you from here, Never feeling your voice. It's a coward's way out, But it's my own choice.
