        It seems forever since I placed a bet
        Nine months two weeks four days
        And yet
        In some ways , it feels like yesterday.
        The “Love” I lived for is not dead
        Just sleeping.
        Reclining , in a deep slumber
        With one eye open
        Watching
        Always listening
        Perhaps, even longing for my call.
        Dare I ask if you hear the echo of my voice
        Or meet me in the dreams I dream of you
        Romanticized delusions , seeping through my nightmares
        Like crisp Autumn leaves that fall in sodden puddles
        Crisp euro notes that wilt in slot machines
        Lying in wait for the “fatcat” to collect
        Along with all my dreams and fantasies
        All lost
        When I succumb to the “Love” that leaves me
        Forever powerless?
