If I Were a Gambler

I’d bet
You have people
Falling in love with you
All the time

I’d bet
You’re flattered and
Let them down gently
When you can

I’d bet
You love wildly
With everything you have
Not knowing why

I’d bet
You leave them
And they leave you
Without good reason

I’d bet
So many times
Because of your beauty
You’ve missed connections

I’d bet
That strong image
And air of confidence
Hides your fears

I’d bet
When you’re alone
You like to cry
Over lost dreams

And I’d bet
One fine day
You will be great
In some way
