Everything is perfect,
Almost.
For there is a catch,
Always.
It could go so smoothly,
Almost.
For only one little thing,
Always.
We could be right on time,
Almost.
For just one bump in the road,
Always.
So do we
Stop what we do?
Stop how we deal?
Stop how we feel?
Or do we
Keep going on?
Keep taking a chance?
Keep following our heart?
For wherever we go,
It will all be perfect,
Till a catch comes up,
Always.
Murphy? is that really you? lol.. Nice way of simplifying, As they sometimes do. What can go wrong will, Maybe… lol It’s how I read it.

Yes, there will be something or the other that will go wrong even in the most perfect of things. But we must still keep going.

I love that like repeating of certain words you tend to use in your poetry. It’s so powerful and you’ve all but mastered this style of yours!

Like I’ve said in the past your hands down one of my new favorite “poem style bloggers!”
The fact that you occasionally enjoy my own posts is secondary, haha. 😆

I know all about that struggling phase in general! 😆
I’m sure at least on here that if you keep posting the quality content that you do, you’ll take off in no time if that’s you desire! ✌🏻

Yeah, sort of that… But let’s not stop the moment something goes wrong, or worse still, not give something a chance just because we feel a shoe is going to drop. Don’t let the catch catch you! 😀

Catch doesn’t catch me. I catch the catch before it catches me.😜
