The One

Compared to me some have it all

But where love rises, love can fall

It’s often said life isn’t fair

But if one’s winning, who would care

I’ve loved and won, I’ve loved and lost

One weighs the risk but not the cost

How I was “loved”, unfortunate

One may forgive, just not forget

Our love began without a dime

So we lost traction, after time

The way we started wasn’t smart

It’s how you finish, not one’s start

I’ve battled love and fought a war

Love wounded me tho so much more

If morphine helps what bullets bust

What helps the one with broken trust

Since I have made a mockery of

My first two tries at finding love

Does one dare risk another chance

To navigate one’s third romance
