Only Once...

Sitting here and sipping my tea,

I wonder why all that's wrong happens so often,

While what's right is a rarity,

Sometimes even almost forgotten!

Why we trip so much before we can stand,

Why it's all gibberish before we can actually say,

Why things don't follow just when we plan,

Why we get lost twice before we find our way....

Why so many heartbreaks before, the Real deal

Comes prancing on his way??

It's simple actually,

When you really think about it... because,

A child that can stand never crawls again,

A kid that can talk doesn't simply mumble any more,

Planning when things are perfect would be in vain,

Once you reach your destination there's no where else to go!

And,

A heart that hasn't broken is a heart that hasn't tried at all!

Do you get it now?

All that is right is a rarity for sure,

And what is wrong happens all the more,

For the simply reason that is

What is right happens only once!

You learn to crawl, walk and run once,

You learn to talk, speak, scream once

You reach your destination only once
And true love with your soul mate is but also only once!


There may be a thousand different wrongs that we fight,
But that is because there is after all only One right!
