The Mathematics

In the mathematics of it all
its never really time to understand, that which we just don't
only when faced with adversity do we realize that 1+1 will always just equal 2
and somewhere in that equation, a 1 will be you
its simple really
but we'd rather make it difficult
adding negatives and decimals, to make our own equation
as if the plain old simple truth is wrong
as if somehow it can be changed
but in the end, you will still just be 1
and 2 will always just be the number you thrive for....

In a very rare occasion we each will become a 2
with another 1
maybe not as tall, or not as bright
maybe 1 with the top curved over
or a 1 who stands up straight
maybe a 1, who is incomplete
but somehow you'll fit,
like a puzzle piece
and realize you are now a 2
when you become that 2 both of you 1's will form and mold to be the perfect shape
maybe you will lay and surrender, become the foundation (_)
maybe you will be what holds you both together, the one who carries the burdens,
or you'll be the one who rides freely on the top..... dancing
which ever 1 you are..
to become just a 1 again will be your biggest fear..
for then.. you'd only be considered a half..
because, you see, a 2 is a single number not 2 ones
in all great equations those two ones, must become one 2
you'd then be missing your other half and become a fragment, or decimal

life is the journey of ones, who seek to become a two
the journey of sacrifices and love
maybe even broken hearts
but then mended ones
life is the unsolved equation that some how we are all apart of...
and somehow all the negatives and positives
halves and wholes
have a place somewhere...
somewhere in your destiny
