Vegas Odds
The line is drawn,
in the sands of a far flung shore.
A choice must be made,
who I am, or who I want to be.
Friend or love,
which lies at the end of the road,
the longest mile is the one,
that leads where I am to go.
To choose one,
will leave me without the other.
To choose both,
will cause me to lose all.
No better chance,
than the roll of the dice.
Even if in my heart,
I know they are loaded against me.
Still I will play,
the tilted tables and stacked decks.
The rule remains as it has been,
the house always wins.
