Card Tricks

Our love

A high stakes
poker game

Cards held
close to the vest

Feelings concealed
behind faces blank

Bluff

Counter bluff

Chips pushed all in

Tension mounts

Hushed tones

Eyes spill secrets

As we reach decision time

Climax of fortune

Mystery cards flipped over

Nobody wins

When we all hold nothing

but empty revelations

and 

broken promises

Game is over
