Poker Face

Your eyes are the ones that have captured my heart brightening my world, that gaze that ignites and sets my body all ablaze . I hang as a golden sunset slightly dazed dipping into shadows of uncertainty . I see your eyes depict a story of control and you want me to know the status quo. Your heart is off limits but your body you would gift, without any thought and I am looking for an ace. To try to navigate the impasse. I can't let myself go without feelings as I’ve always been the more demanding one . So here we are, both wiling to give, but not in a united game plan, one withdraws from the bank of love, the other waits on the interest, and will hedge they're bets, A delayed accumulator, possibly withdrawing later a wild card . Now do you play or or do you fold . my hands tremble in trepidation as I shuffle the deck realising I am up to my neck in a game where I’m losing even with my poker face on .
