Once in a Lifetime

Timing is everything
Notice when I come in the scene
It's usually too soon
For people to see
The realness in me
Thinking the kindness is weak
Not seeing the geunine to speak
Taking advantage til I give up
On their soules and their love
Sometimes it takes a minute to see
But they all come around eventually
Recognizing the purity
Of heart that's in me
A soul that comes in your life once
When it leaves, it's done
They always figure it out too late
The same stuck look on each face
Missing out on that chance
Of a once in a life time romance
Seeing realtalk as jealousy
Falling for fake and lesser than me
Sometimes needing years to see
How slow they could really be
Trickling down from them to me
The cycle of how they treat
Now it's too late to get
That love back in place
Hope they learned
Next time keep up with the pace
I sure learned
From each one
and when I let go
It WAS done
Timing really does matter
They showed their true colors
It was a disaster
I hope I helped them all grow
Then it was worth more than I know
Living life lovingly
Can be hurtful
It fufills me so
To know I can give fully
And appreciate when love is really given to me
