This piece i also wrote quite a while ago, late last yr and added to early this year... As far as imagery goes its one of my favourites,
lemme know what u think..
>>>>>>>>>FOLLOW SUIT<<<<<<<<<<<<
In this game of life my cards have been dealt 52,
and each one that arises reminds me of you
You were my Queen of hearts and my lucky number seven
if you do the math then any suit of Ace can be eleven
but it stayed up my sleeve, which is where i wore my heart
in retrospect its clear i shouldve rolled up my cuffs
cos now i sit with 5 cards face down on the table
lookin for a new hand to help me through this fable
label me a lover, label me a friend too
this triangle will rotate and stay centred on you
this is what you want yes is this what you need
love belonging and attention, did i mention the greed?
Supersede, levels were reached and discovered
Change suit to diamonds as i lift up the cover
and blinded by beauty all i saw was light
the twinkling of my diamond queen infected my sight
On a flush of diamonds i thought i held a hand victorious
now i see my cards never really were that glorious
Not the only one, hell I was just another
still left tryna figure out if I ever was a lover
three points all alone have no real divinity
a fourth creates an axis of centralised affinity
then they rotate on a similar axis that matches
but catches the edge of a 3 sided hatchet
this jack of all trades chose spades and dug deeper
hearts were clubbed hard left empty like the reaper
but i don't lay the blame i was a keeper in my own game
equally to blame, yeah the pain included my name
i was deluded entwined in infatuation
that feeling of perfection made me blind to situation
but as i look back, i wouldn't change a thing
cos it put me in touch with the stranger within
the chapter of this book has seen an end
i fold my cards, and embrace you as a friend
Peace
