I'm a piece of paper. Everyone uses me, tears me apart, and I get thrown in the trash. A simple life.


Love 

Love is dangerous

You win

You lose

You roll the dice, 

Taking a chance

You realize you made a mistake

A mistake, oh god.

Have you jeopardized everything?

The dice jumo around on the table 

clitter, clatter

clitter, clatter

The dice stop as you close your eyes

Slowly, opening your eyes,

as you look at the number

2, it's a 2

It's gone, you lost it

You lost the love of your life. 

It was just a game, 

right?


The author's comments:

I wrote this after getting heartbroken by the person I've liked for over 3 months. It was heartbreaking to me because I never took my shot and will most likely never see them again.

The photo I chose shows how stormy and how quick life can move, you should always take your shot.
