The Lucky Ones Poem

The Lucky Ones

Falling in love is magnetic, cosmic.

Broken hearts are just wrong and tragic. 

However it's the journey in between that counts,

The moments that take your breath away even though time hasn't stopped.

When the one you love holds you in their arms,

Till you feel safe and sound,

And tells you warm and slowly, “we’re the lucky ones and I love you only"

Falling in love is magnetic, cosmic.

Falling out is hard and soulless, 

But sometimes what is already bent and broken 

Needs to be closed, forgotten, not opened.

Maybe time can mend 

The passion that's now like ash 

Or maybe time will melt our hearts of stone 

Touching us till our bones

Preparing us for the one 

Who will love us past dawn and dusk.
