One Fine Day

Should I never been into an event of my life

I will not meet new souls

Or even fall in love with them

Since nothing is permanent

One day we will be apart

I asked God why

Life always has two sides

Why sad and happy

Big and small

Noisy and silent

Busy and calm

Encounter and separation

Of all the things that I hate the most is separation

What if I live forever in my mom's comfortable womb

I could have lived happily ever after

But baby will separate from the womb

And from family to her new family

From her mother to become a mother

From her father to her significant other

Why God invented separation in the first place?

Or was it a legacy from the First Man

Who separated himself from the One

And become the Other

We have no option but to be apart

And singing our farewell lullaby

Always out of tune in my grand and living orchestra

Farewell is always an off key

That I could not get rid of

Full of false hopes and wishes and what-ifs

But no place for broken note in my melodies

If just one fine day we will happen to meet again

That one fine day is forever a mystery

Who knows we will meet here or there

Who knows we will leave each other here and there

God knows

To improve and rearrange the harmony

One fine day is all I need
