Just Once

Like in the movies I see

Like all the lovers I see

 

Just Once

Like the boys and girls

Like the sweetness I witness and never receive

 

Just Once

I want to be someone’s teddy bear

Someone’s honey

Someone’s bunny

 

Just Once

I want to cruise with a lover in my arms

I want to float in the air with a lover at my side

 

Just Once

Like the music I listen too

Like the dramatic theatre productions that I watch

 

Just Once

Like my friends and relatives

Like my professors and grandparents

Like my co-workers and past significant others

 

Just Once

During the holidays

During the Fourth Of July

During the New Year’s celebration

 

Just Once

During the first snowfall

During the August down pour

During the change of seasons

 

Just Once

During the central park walk

During the vast ceremonies

During the mellow drinks at the corner bar

 

Just Once

I want to be someone’s sugar pie

Someone’s pumpkin pie

Someone’s apple pie

 

Just Once

I want to fall in love

And never get out of it

 

Just Once

I want to fall in love

And get lost in it

 

Just Once

I want to fall in love
