Queen of Spades

They say absence makes the heart grow fonder,

Not with me,

The time we spend apart,

I grow stronger.

Each day the memory of him fades, 

until there is nothing left…

only a forgotten face,

and a name that will never be said again.

I am the queen of spades,

I play the game.

In a world full of copies, 

I am the original gem,

cannot be obtained, 

My mission is ordained, 

In a world made for men, 

I forged the game,

With a SWORD AND A PEN.

A warrior disguised as the damsel, 

I slay them all,

as I conquer.

poker face,

 fill them up with love

then I leave.

best lover and strategic player,

never settle for a jack,

nor do I entertain the joker,

My cards,

two Aces  a diamond and a spade.

I throw the deuces after I win the game!

I disappear into the night, 

I am the queen of spades. 

I turned my pain to purpose, 

Experience, mystery and wisdom. 

No one knows the hand I was dealt, 

it is the secret to my power. 

I am a vigilant,

becoming what others cannot ignore.

Lesson in  perseverance and war.

The queen of spades

transformation in the flesh,

The most feared card in the deck.

Devine intervention, 

Karma’s best friend. 

I am she,

Original sin,

Bad omen to men. 

A weak man could never be worthy, 

Looking for more than the usual suspects, 

A handful of jacks an ace and a joker, 

surrounded by jesters. 

 stopped searching long ago, 

disappeared into the realm of the monsters,

never to be seen again.. 

Time after time you may see me in the shadows, 

Alone, as always

Should  a worthy opponent find me… 

IN CONCLUSION:

Should you ever find the queen of spades,

If you do not find yourself to be a worthy opponent,

runaway…
