I built my house of dreams,
on the turbulent sea.
I worked on it for so long,
trusting that it was safe and strong.
Li’l did I know it was a
house of cards.
Laid on the foundation of uncertainty,
why did I ever expect harmony.
I started living in my
house of cards.
Caught in it forever,
dangling between goodbye and happily ever after.
Not meant for gambling, was this
house of cards.
But still, I decided to play,
Knowing what all I have to pay.
Blown away, sank and fell, my
house of cards.
Trying to win a losing game,
I stand today, lost and with no aim.
