all bets on me

 
my stomach growled
mouth dried
anger howled
bets lay
how long will she hold out?
I say she caves today

I stood in my shoes
and said I can't do it
I prayed
the gods answered
it's up to you
we'll cover you
no matter the choice

I died inside
re-birthed in my new skin
took a stand
every day is a shot
to prove them wrong
I won't be the quintessential loser

the dice rolled
came up all aces
I'm a winner
