The Distance

It came to be as if by chance

Twist of fate and circumstance

Destined someday soon to meet

They pass each other on the street

He caught her eye when he passed by

She caught her breath and wondered why

She almost thought she'd felt something

The gentle tug of a long-lost dream

Dismissed without a second thought

Broken dreams are best forgotten

They saw each other from a distance

Just one more coincidence

She only gave him half a glance

After all, there was too much distance
