I’ve gambled all.

Did I lose? Did I win?

I’m not selling out!

I’m buying in.

The strangest dream,

a film I’m in.

I’m losing it!

I’m done within!

Alone again,

breathe out, breathe in.

How strange is life!

Where have I been?

What happens now?

Whatever will!

I will find out,

I’m buying in!

Do I regret?

I never will!

I’ve gambled all,

but did I win?

The dark depression

that I’ve been,

got lighter now

as light came in.

I guess I lost

and I did win.

How strange the world

that I live in.

A dream I had.

Why wake? I cling

to moments of

just peace within.

A gambled dream,

a form of sin.

I have come back

from where I’ve been.

As time goes on

I change within

accept myself

with all I’ve been.

An easy life,

is not my thing.

I gave it up,

I’m buying in.

And what will come?

Who knows? I will

live through it all

and fight within.

A fight that I

may never win.

Yet never lose

a gambled dream.
