Rebuild

You were the dealer at the table To which I gambled my life away Until I was dead broke No more vices left to spend No more benders left to bend All the hearts around me broken They needed time to mend Stripped of it all I rebuilt from scratch Making sure there was nothing in me that I lack And as I sit at this table, look it’s my vices You’ve come back, But I no longer need you.
