Songs of Legacy: Once In A While

I have decided to post my poetic works since I am very busy right now to continue with heavy writings. This is from my copyrighted book of poems "Songs of Legacy"

Once In A While

Once in a while we need to cry

And a friend whom we can rely

Once in a while when all hopes die

A love one to bring back the smile

Once in a while when the stars fade away

And in this road we have gone astray

Once in a while we search for a way

And someone to lead the day

Once in a while memories and dreams fade

And we cannot even see our own face

Once in a while we lose our grace

As we fall and stumble in this race

Once in a while, once in a while

All we need is the Northern Star

Once in a while, once in a while

Someone to keep burning the fire
