30th installment of my series (Karen)


Let the Dice Roll Twice

The dice I've been given roll
Have done more than decide my fate
They given me a better view
Kept my mind seeing straight
I've rolled some great numbers
Even rolled 6’s one time or two
But long ago I rolled snake eyes
I felt my life had turned taboo
Is my life a high stakes gamble
Things have really altered my view
The earthquakes I've had to face
I rolled snake eyes several times
Those loses can’t ever replace
Too have control over my rolls
In fact true yet not the same
Because I risked it all
In this high stakes betting game
I rolled the dice this time
And found out that god loved me
For I almost went home broken
Covered in my mistakes and debris
Now I don’t take the gambles
I live a life so simple today
I've let the dice I use to throw
Lose track and fade away
In the times that I feel lucky
I find the dice that caused me pain
And roll to see what could be
And know they can’t cause me disdain
