serendipity
April 21, 2023
happy accidents happen.
Something or someone you shall not seek.
But of what you will receive.
A hidden gift that you may not realize.
May be waiting right underneath your feet.
Moving to a new home as you land.
The heart, that carries so much weight.
The thought of new friends
and the urge for a new change
yet you still hesitate.
You get used to it for a while.
You become part of the crowd.
Going to football games and buying prom dresses that were out on display.
But you question why you still feel this way.
Months pass and you notice someone.
A connection forms
One that you never felt before
it feels kind of fun.
Encountering the first tenderness touch from them.
feeling the flush of blood run through your body on your first date.
Valuable things like this we all question if they could stay.
Wondering if this truly is fate.
You now have a group of friends that fill your life with laughter and warmth.
you accept the life you have now, realizing it all worked.
startled what life has given you, you put yourself forth
unexpected occurrences, yet it still has more
‘why do you stay?’ and ‘why do I get to keep you if I do not deserve you?’
it replied in a dulcet tone, ‘why, I am your serendipity and that’s all I’ll ever be’
