When it comes to matters of the heart it is often we lose track of what we really need to appreciate and search for in a mate.  In a world filled with fabricated illusions of love, I ask that we recognize that love is in need of love today, and to take responsibility in ensuring that the future of the relationship structure stays authentic and intact.  Please take the time to read this poem, as it may just inspire you to challenge the impressions left by popular culture and search a little deeper for the lover in you!

Queen of Hearts

Shuffle once shuffle twice, but make sure you pick right tonight

Many Mrs. Wrongs hidden in the deck, but only one Mrs. Right

Live a life of love and laughter, like Common, together you’ll see the light

So let me enlighten you with some thoughts of mine, a little female insight

They say she’s a dime piece, and diamonds last forever right?

But what future manifests from conflict, unless you have an affinity for the fight

Don’t be fooled by doubles, pairs, full houses, or the infamous ladies of the night

Avoid the Queen of Diamonds King, money is the only thing she has in sight

Next up is little miss I know everybody, queen of the social clubs

She confuses your reputation and connections, with a falsified sense of love

Face cards and public eyes is what she will always put above

Above your heart, your dreams, your family…now tell me is this really love?

Following suit is the Queen of Spades; trust me she is far from any nun

Masquerading with bluffs of passion, elation and never ending fictitious fun

U will pick up five every time, turn your fortune of aces into ones

She’ll nickel and dime, make you do time, around her you’ll end up with none

So shuffle once, shuffle twice but make sure you pick right tonight

Many Mrs. Wrongs hidden in the deck, but only one Mrs. Right

So I speak these words now, because I feel that indeed I must

When the river runs I fear you will choose to bluff love with the allure of lust

Your eyes fixated on the female four of a kind, instead of a royal flush

Mark my words, Queen of Hearts is the only lady deserving of your trust

At the end of the day it’s your call, will you stay? Fold? Or will you bust?

She’s all in, looking at you King, with her there’s no need to fuss

Remember the house always wins, so make it a home

She’ll be waiting until your hand comes up!

So shuffle once shuffle twice, but make sure you pick right tonight

Many Mrs. Wrongs hidden in the deck, but there is only one Mrs. Right!
