Dealt The Wrong Hand

Someone who takes over their life after hardships throughout it.

All her life

She's been given

The short end of the stick

But now

Its her time

To shine,

She doesn't want to live this way

Tired of being dealt the wrong hand

So she puts on her poker face

So you won't see the pain she's endured

Because she wants to win

And finally take control

Of the wrong hand

That's been dealt to her

To finally win in the game of life

Even after being dealt the wrong hand

Author's Note

If you keep pushing forward you can always come out on top in the end.

Another masterpiece rolls off of your quill, showing all your certain skill, and some knowledge this does instill. Your writings amaze and astound, with words of wisdom to be found, and wit and humor doth abound. Keep the muse rolling me friend, peace and blessing I now send, Reading your works until the end

I like the message here, and I like the title and the comparison of a card game and all. It's a good poem with a nice flow!

The thoughts are valid... but the taste of it is - undone somehow. Its like it is a swirling cloud not quite a rain or thunder -storm nor a tornado - and not quite a poofy nothng.

I believe everyone comes to a point in their life like this. I believe you can made the best of a bad situation. Your kindness and the hope you give people is wonderful.

Very optimistic and inspiring

this an inspirational piece for all... no, this is an attitude piece for all... you've got attitude... (the good kind!) The goal is to take the hand you've been dealt and show everyone that it is a good hand... and you'll know when you've succeeded when you can stand straight and tall wherever you are... (and sometimes just standing straight and tall is all that it takes to get started...!)
