How many nevers you have in your life
And how many were you able to stick to
It is a cursed word I believe
the one you say will never happen
will always turn out to come not true.
A battle of wits rages between you and a higher power
The moment you say ‘No way. Never.’
He says Uh-oh! now that wasnt very clever
Why do you have to say such final statements
your pre-set notions giving a violent surge
Now I have to dismantle your rigid stance
Coz dude, its not you who is in charge.
For me 90% of the things that I thought would never happen to me or I would never do, always ended otherwise. IS it only me or does it happen with you too?
This is my entry for Jingle’s Thursday poet Rally.
And I nominate Beth of Doubtful Poet fame
Keeping track of a wandering mind 
nice.
it happens to everyone!
unexpected things happen all the time!
Best!
And doesn’t it feel bad! Sometimes it’s not even a fault of your own commitment and will power. IT just happens!

Thank you Jingle 🙂 After the grilling 4 days I have had, this comes like fresh air.
the chances are always one out of two 🙂
Cmon! Shouldn’t you deciding that something will never happen skew the chances in your favor?
Same here my friend!
It always happened to me this, but I try to look like I’m used with it 🙂
Beautiful poem as always. It’s so easy to read your poems and to understand it 😉 I think that the message from the poem or a story it’s very important to be understood from the beginning 🙂
Enjoy your day!!! 🙂 😉
Thanks Alina. Im glad you liked it. Your words are very encouraging.
yep, i am right there. again and again….
IS there a wayout? 😉 😀

Yep! God has his plan … no matter what we wish for and how much we pray.
Happens to me too … as soon as I say never … oops it happens!!!!!!!!!!!!

So true. It indeed feels as if you have no control over your own life.
Work is hectic. Working after a year and they gave a campaign right on the fist day..getting used to the schedule 🙂 🙂

I have learned through hard experience to stop saying never.
Darling, I really want to thank you ,
from the very bottom of my heart,
for coming over to wish William for his birthday tribute.
He was so thrilled and this cannot be done without YOU!
You ROCK!
Have you a great week.

Thanks to you Shakira for making me part of such a sweet jesture 🙂 There are very few people in this world who have the ability to think about doing something special for others…you are one of them 🙂
hi datsme!
sometimes, people tend to worry a lot and sometimes that thinking could lead to one not being able to do anything. it’s not good because it happens to most people and almost all the time.
so never ever say never, ever.
good day! 🙂
