House of Cards

I have no other like you.

To say the least your heart

is true.

My Sweetheart.
Your perfections tear

others apart.

Like violin strings

beating to find their charm.

Tell myself I couldn't care less,

when I ask when I could put this

to rest.

You thought you had me

in a way you did.

I realized it.

I have to confess.

Your world 

my world.

is a test.

Make my satisfaction the top

of this list.

I can do better.

Shuffle the cards of your game.

I won't soothe your pain.

I hope it paralyzes.

I'll take your favorite person

you idolize,

& burn them to flames.

Deal your cards

Little did you know

I had the Ace.

Your queens and kings

are the ones to blame.

You have to rule.

Its the luck of the draw.

But you cheated

& that was brutal.

I'll play your game,

but I'm felling any foe

in my gaze.

Wow, that seemed to escalate quickly! Not where I thought that poem was going, and THAT'S what I like about it.
