The Risk

The Risk

I've heard it said
that in life
all things worth having
are worth
taking a risk for

Really?
Then why is it
that every time
I take a chance
I roll the proverbial dice
I just feel like
a fucking fool

What if
what you have to risk
is too precious to lose?
Is it prideful
to hold on to my dignity
like a gambler to a
promising lottery ticket?

What is more worth
the risk?
Saving face
or experiencing
something like
love?
