Poker of Chance

Why is it hard to take chances? Would chances be worth the risk? What if you fail and things would go wrong? Could you still hope for a happy ending?
In reality, everything is a game of chance. Make or break. Take it or leave it. We are hoping for things to fall at their proper places. And when it doesn't go as planned, we rely on faith, prayers, and everything that comes in between. But when opposite worlds clash, could we be able to gamble on chances? Can faith give us the confidence we needed?
Thing is, the person you value so much grew up in a world opposite of your own. She was one who enjoyed a happy life. She was one who live and breath a good life, perhaps, a wealthy life. You grew up with her, shared your young, naive days with her. But living a fast- paced life, things changed. You grew up realizing your world is actually far from hers. Far more different than her.
She's speciea, hence, you bet on the game of chance. It wasn't a smooth ride, alright. You were whisked away from the girl you love and fought to keep a long distance relationship going. Happy moments lingered for a moment but things fell from bad to worse and both felt miserable as days went. Reality bites, she chose her own world and you were left stark naked in a dark grey area.
You lost your bet. You end up giving too much of yourself and was left hurting. You delve down into your own psyche and emotion. Eventually, you became blinded-- a walking emotional machine.
Then fate took it's toll on both of you. * " There are millions of people in this world. But in the end, it all comes down to one." Are you gonna still bank on the poker of chances or would you gonna be rational this time? Maybe, dismiss the thought and let rainy days and love songs lose it's value.
In the end, I happen to get sick of rainy days and love songs. Yet, holding back to say goodbye to someone I embraced once in my life.
* Crazy/ Beautiful
