The Shot
Thought you were hot
So I took a shot
I went down in flames
I have only myself to blame
I was punching above my class
You’ve rolled the dice
Once or twice
Why not take that chance on me
Come on babe don’t be mad
I promise it won’t be that bad
After all, we all look the same in the dark
So I took a shot
I went down in flames
I have only myself to blame
I was punching above my class
You’ve rolled the dice
Once or twice
Why not take that chance on me
Come on babe don’t be mad
I promise it won’t be that bad
After all, we all look the same in the dark

Author's Note
This poem is a little tongue in cheek. It harkens back to younger days at the bar where drunk guys would hit on all the hot girls. My attempt at humour

You have to take a shot for love. If does work then you are happy. If doesn't take time to heal and get up on the horse again. Keep on writing.
