A Thousand To One

Thousands of people we may meet
On the street, on the bus, on the train
Never to see again.
With hundreds of people we may speak
A word or two, ideas and thought
The wars we fought.
With a dozen souls we may live
Side by side, in daily life
Come either bliss or strife.
With several people we will feel
Utter trust and comfort: care
Anytime, and anywhere.
To a couple of hearts we are bound
With a strong, unbreakable string
Knowing we have everything.

But only with one will we feel whole
With a passion planted so deep in the heart
A timeless love, found only once
Without an ending, without a start
