Twice Shy

It wasn’t until once To sometimes take perhaps a two To then have once for a second chance Funny how I know yet never knew I’m to guess it happen before Perhaps a second guess to encounter once again Did a first time happen once more? Or did I remember to forget ever the same? Thrice and I am shy Might I accidentally question myself? I cross my heart yet I ask why Is there that promise or yet something else? One two three and yet a fourth I remember I don’t remember anymore so Simply a because was the caused Was there ever the first time that I know? A repeated pattern from a following once To only remember after a yet shying two Not everything though deserves a second chance That I know yet funny I never knew
