i wonder
if i have ever passed by
'the one'
walking along the road
or sitting in the plane
i wonder
if i have missed him
by seconds
or minutes
or maybe a day
or two
i wonder
if the next person
i see
holds the key
to the endless void
that is my heart
but mostly
i wonder
if he is already gone
if i am never to see him
if fate has plucked him away
before he had a chance
to be in my life
will i tread this earth alone, then
a part of my soul missing?
or will i settle for second best
our edges never quite fitting?
just something off the top of my head
