Maybe Next Time


You maybe broken hearted today, but take heart,
it's not the end of the world yet.
Life is a flux. Nothing is constant.
Maybe, your time has not yet come.
To God, His time is always the perfect time.
Maybe you will find your soul mate at the next
turn of the road.
Just wait for awhile.

Yes, maybe next time you can smile again
And laugh at all the crazy thoughts that ever
crossed your mind.
Maybe next time you will be sitting at the top
of the world.
So wipe away the tears in your eyes.

Yes, maybe next time, you can sing again the
lullaby of love welling deep inside your heart.
Yes, maybe next time, you can learn to love again.
Just maybe next time.

Hi Mississippi Songbird,
Yes, love is all that matters. I made this post for all my blogmates who are broken hearted and in distress. I hope they will find consolation in my post. Thank you my friend for your visit. Do take care of your family and entrust their care to the Lord. God bless you and your family always.

Hi Tey,
As I've said, I made this post for all my broken hearted and hurting blogmates. Yes, God's time is the perfect time. We must trust Him that He will give us what we need in His own time. Until then, we can only hope and pray. Thanks for your visit and comments. God bless you and your family always.

Hi Heiresschild,
We can never put our fate in our own hands. If we do, we are bound to failure. We must entrust our fate in the hands of God and heed His will in our lives. Then, we will experience a victorious and abundant life as promised by the Lord. Thanks for your visit and meaningful comments my friend. God bless you and your family always.

Hi Dreamwriter,
Thank you so much for your compliment but TO GOD BE THE GLORY. I hope you are doing well in school and have minimized your problems. I hope too that your children are doing well. You can focus more on their welfare. I have been praying for you and all those who suffer from bipolar disorder. I pray to the Lord that He will deliver you all from all your burdens in life. Thanks again for your visit. God bless you and your family always.

Yes I know that song my young friend. That has been the song of all women who have been jilted by their lovers. It gives them inspiration to survive the pain of a lost love. Thanks for your visit and comments. God bless you and your family always.

Hi MEL
Beautiful and inspiring poem by you.Thanks for sharing the lovely thought on heart broken, which an everyday events on us...if not directly happening to us, but to our dear friends,fmly and others..

But I do agree that sometimes, by fate, we were gifted or met someone who were not so good before we met the one that meant to be...

Thing hppns for a reason..

Thanks for this beautiful poem Mel.May God bless you always and be happy.

Hi Byotipol,
Okay lang. I understand naman na busy ka sa pagalaga sa baby mo. Your baby is very beautiful and intelligent. I'm sure she'll grow up to be a wonderful lady. Take good care of your family, they are God's blessings to you. You are blessed by the Lord katulad ni Christina (Haze) who is doing very well in UK. It just goes to show that Filipinas make good and wonderful wives. Thanks for your visit and your very encouraging comments. God bless you and your family always.

Mel Avila Alarilla said...

Hi Mona,
Thanks for your visit and your very generous comments. I also like the articles you post in your blog. They are all very meaningful and worthwhile to be read. God bless you and your family always.

Mel Avila Alarilla said...

Hi Noushy,
Thanks for appreciating the poem. I wrote it for my many blogger friends who are broken hearted. They must know that God has a plan for each of us and our life partners will soon appear in the horizon. We just have to trust Him and wait. Impatience sometimes lead us to commit so many unnecessary mistakes in life which lead us bitter and frustrated. You are very fortunate to have found the man of your dreams. But there are still so many challenges in life to be conquered. You have a whole life time ahead to fulfill all your cherished dreams in life. Thanks for your visit my wonderful friend. God bless you and your family always.
