Once in a Life is a Love True

Once in a life is a love true,

That err the world to forget, and fall out of view

When icy eyes last laid eyes on you;

This is an enchantment that will go by,

I tell myself as the years go by,

But I can only focus my mind on her,

My once in a life destined partner;

Now do I (from afar) stalk at her pretty locks,

And let my heart lonely and cold, at the stroke of the clock

Or do I lust after this loveliness,

With our hearts in hand, our love in lock,

My hair in rand with her flowing tress,

Our fingers a basketweave, carrying the meals of our mirth;

Because it’s only a matter of time, and it’s only a matter of truth,

If I could latch this feeling by it’s stubborn roots,

And hoe these virtues, of sunken fruits, that say:

There cannot be another, nor a love of two

Because once in a life is a love true
