Subject: "If Only Once"

If Only Once


If only once we could know love-
The kind which fills the soul,
And makes us blind to every flaw
Our every whim controls.

The kind which makes the heart to sing
And time fly when together-
And drag when distance comes between
Yet binds us like a tether.

To love and lose is not so bad-
Though it should cast a pall-
Tis so much worse for man or maid-
To never love at all.

If only once we had a friend-
To share our every thought-
To stand beside, to cheer one on
In every battle fought.

One to whom we need not speak
But comfort could be found
Because we felt the other's need
When ever he's around.

If only once...one had a dream
A goal, one could pursue-
It matters not if it's attained
To only dream will do.

A dream to give one purpose, friend
A lighthouse for our course
Across the stormy sea of life-
To give our courage force.

Without a love, a friend, a dream-
Times passage seems to lull-
Our senses and desires to live
Makes life so drab, so dull.

So love until thou canst no more
Seek out and make a friend
And dream as long as dream you can
When they cease,'twill be the end.
