Queen of Diamons, Queen of Hearts

An innocent addiction-
To play, to steal, to win
Protecting precious hands
Of people cold and thin

My fellow lady wishing
To lie down with kings and queens
As my stare cuts deep within her
Flashing romantic lusty scenes

I wish for nothing more than love
To stand by me day by day
While she imagines gold and jewels
Money and diamonds to come her way

My preconceived notions are accurate
As she lays down her losing hand
I laugh as I look at her fine lady
Who claims to rule the land

I begin to dream of my future
Knowing all that I’ve just won
And call my own bluff to win the game
Setting my cards down one by one

My royalty glares within her eyes
Picking her soul into pieces and parts
And let it be known that on this day-
Queen of Diamonds lost to Queen of Hearts
