Melancholy Muse .:I lost:. by Cathlyn CartierLonely again,
Only this time by choice,
Sometimes the stakes are too high.
Taking a chance on love...
I gambled and lost. 02/20/2004 Author's Note: Melancholy Muse

Posted by Lori Johnson on 02/21/04 at 07:00 PM I'm debating now whether or not the gamble is worth it. LOL I used to always think so, but the pain of losing is deep, huh?
Good stuff (acrostic at that). :) |
