A ONE MAN GAME

Our life's a game of
SOLITAIRE,
And time slips by us,
Unaware.
We play the cards
As they are dealt,
Each win, or loss,
Is deeply felt.
We fight, we laugh,
We love and hate,
We tell the truth,
We fabricate.
When things go wrong,
We place the blame,
On a hand of cards,
The play of the game.
As we set out
On our paths', alone
We have no need
For a chaperone,
For whether 'together',
Or whether a wreck,
We, you and I,
Unaided,
SHUFFLED THAT DECK.

I am an enigma, even unto myself.
A puzzle unsolved, a mystery maybe until beyond death.  Â©das

You have written very wise words here SPIRIT. Enjoyed. Chris
