Ok, this is a poem I just wrote
that have double meaning.
I hope you'll like it!


You've lost, by the way

I play my cards,
wishing hard to get by

It's probably clear as glass
(when clear and not dusty)
I have to, came to, live to win
and win alone...

I discreetly observe you,
trying to find an unplanned smile,
trying to understand my chances

But it's no good,
your face is the same as always,
nice and thougthful,
but not only or especially for me
(you're always nice)

You have the pokerface all built in
I can't read you
(and I'm wellread)

I play my cards,
if only to get an answer,
if only to get the "No"
or maybe "Yes"
(maybe...)

And I suddenly realise
that if I'm the only one playing
I've won anyway

One must play to have that chance
and you've lost

by the way

I found this poem very interesting... I think I know your mixed messages here in this poem... and I like it...
the person is both a looser of him( his cards his play )
but in the end a winner...
or am I totally wrong now :S
Well I liked the poem....:)
