Everyone talks about finding "The One" or says he/she is the "One" for me. It got me thinking of how many "One's" does a person encounter before finding the "Last One?" So I wrote this:
To my one's, I leave no one out
And if I did its because even though you thought you were the first one
you probably were the second or third or fourth
makes you no less special just not a first one
There was the one
who was my first boyfriend
not the same as the one who gave me my first kiss
who is not the one who gave me my first french kiss
who is not the one that took me from a girl to what I thought was a woman
and he was definitely not my first love...but I liked him...maybe thought I loved him
looking back I didn't
My first love I still love, not in a I love you want to be with you kind of way, but a you were my first love so there is a special place in my heart for you kind of love
Back to the other one's
One Mexican guy I dated
and the One Malaysian guy
and the one first white guy
And the one who cheated on me
and the one I cheated with
And the one I still have a major crush on
And the one I can't stand to talk too, its so hard for me to be nice to you
And the one I let get away, that one I messed up
And the one that I think for real, why did I like you?
And the one I won't give a chance but I still can't figure out why because you really are a great guy
And the one that I should let go but haven't yet I know I really really should
And the one who won't return my calls
And the one I just met
And that other one I just met...
I'm sure there will be more one's
Thinking of my one's make me think about the two's which make me think about the three's
which makes me think is there a THE ONE for me???
I'm thankful for my experiences, good, bad, ugly, in between.
**Disclaimer: Just to clarify I date and have been dating since forever. Dating does not mean sleeping with a ton of different men. It means just that--DATING. I feel like I have to put that out there cause I know how some people think. Which your minds should stay out of the gutter!**

I love this...and you know my head was trying to put names to each one.
There was a time I thought "The One" was something or someone very real. Now, not really sure.
Thinking you try to make it work best with someONE, but they weren't the only ONE it could've worked with.
*snap, snap, snap* I love it! Like Misty, I was trying to match all the real life "One's" to the poetry ones. LOL
