In the hush of the casino, where the chips they brightly gleam,
There's a thrill that fills my soul, a passion like a dream.
For the game of poker holds me captive, with its strategy and art,
A dance of bluff and cunning, that sets my racing heart.
The cards, they are my language, a story yet untold,
Each hand a chance for glory, a future to unfold.
With a steady eye and mind unclouded, I plot my every move,
A silent war of wills enacted, beneath the flickering groove.
The pot, a growing treasure, that fuels the burning flame,
Of reading tells and faces, a captivating game.
A flick of the wrist, a chip I raise, the tension fills the air,
Will I win or will I fold now? The unknown, a gambler's snare.
But win or lose, it matters not, for the love of poker's deep,
It's the thrill of every challenge, the secrets that we keep.
So deal me in, I'm all in, for this game that sets me free,
The love of poker, burning bright, a fire in me.
