Once is Not Enough

I've seen sunrises

leading

to wonderful day,

and sunsets

promising

nights of passion.

I've owned

rainbows,

and dreams

that came true.

I've had lovers

whispering

sighing

crying:

"Love."

My dawns

and dusks,

dreams

and lovers

have been just once

then

gone.

I never complained,

and never did mind

that nothing

lasts.

Till this one time with you

(when your love touched my mind

and your hands held my soul.)

Has now,

like old calendar pages,

become a memory.

I think it's sad

that sometimes,

like the one time with you,

once is not enough.
