Our love was bounded
Between the oceans
Beyond the clouds
Here on the land
As I stood In Spring
And you In Winter
Under the same sky
With the variety of clouds.
Our existence lived in
Different timezones
And different seasons
With random people
On different reasons
Our prayers were filled
With the hopes
Of finding each other
Of crossing the path
Looking strangers
But the heart that
We recognized.
But our love was finite
By the people
We could never become
Or by what we could be
And by the loneliness we felt
As we laid still
In the middle of the night
Clothes were stripped out
With someone else
We barely knew.
In the night so deep
As we were wide-eyed
Staring on the ceiling
We found ourselves
Rhyming words for each other.
