ACCIDENTSA Poem by Poetry And Current AffairsIt was all an accident How
you and I met You
almost didn’t say hi And
I almost did not smile I
was merely passing by And
you could have been a minute late
You
could have missed our first date And
anything could have happened before or even after that Like
so much has happened between then and now It’s
the rule of time
Unfortunately,
Accidents like love too happen Just
Like cars can crash And
I could get caught in a cross fire Or
perhaps have a heart attack
Break
up with you a thousand times until We
Loose control of the breaks And
can’t quite grab a hold of the clutch Find
ourselves limping on the crutch of lost time Because
by then it will be too late
i'm late, for my periods And
my tears are a delayed reaction So
maybe chance, could have been me asking you to stay In
the same way Our
first dance could’ve been our last And
the end; A see you tomorrow
Because
some goodbyes are subtle They
can be disguised as the warmest hugs Or
the sweetest kisses But
most times they are just abrupt You
know, like Accidents like baby bumps like 5 years and you've only seen her twice like the after effects of speeding cars like i'm sorry, too many times like several tries.. like accidents
