Collide

So far away,

Today.

Is there really someone out there for everyone?

And what if there isn’t?

You’ll have no one to love you.

Or what if there is someone out there,

And you’ll never know?

If two people are destined to meet,

What if destiny takes a break,

And they never find their other half?

But just as you’re wondering, walking down that busy street,

In that bustling city,

Home to millions of people,

You lift your eyes from the sidewalk,

Just as another is doing the same.

But it’s too late, you can’t stop

And the two of you collide.

You sputter and flush, ‘Excuse me’,

You say simultaneously.

And as you lift your eyes again to meet his,

You think that maybe destiny is working overtime.
