I see her from afar <br />eyes concealed behind shaded glasses <br />as she touches my heart from up close <br />Hiding my emotions I deal out a smile <br />but she sees me for who I am <br />and my bluff is revealed <br />thats what I love about her <br />Either life or love she lays it all out on the table <br />as she waits for my next move <br />I raise the ante and from her actions I see hope <br />she calls and with a stern look of determination <br />I know she's serious about me, about us <br />My mind starts to race <br />still with a trick up my sleeve I stall while making <br />small talk with her <br />But she sees thru my fasade <br />so I fold she smiles and gives me a warm embrace <br />Sometimes winning comes from losing <br />Even though I'm the king of all spades <br />her love for me is always trump <br />for the jack of clubs <br />makes you my queen of diamonds <br />and the ace of my heart<br /><br />Black on Black Arts<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/ace-of-my-heart/
