Distance
The city, it cried endless tears
as the night took over
faster and faster
the fragile part exploded in ways
never seen before
it was as if one night,
fate took a gamble
and at that hour in which they met
two souls from separate corners of the earth
hadn't know a thing
night by night
their spirits wandered aimlessly
until the aim had magically become each other
without conscious reasoning or acceptance
that's how they took over one another
his words echoed like a hymn
where each word was nothing short of divine
and she was often caught breathless
he even tended to parts unknown
distant and melancholy
her words entrapped him
in which she often whispered
"come here, let me show you how to be loved."
vulnerability, she no longer feared
but was convinced,
to lay nothing down but the truth
after all, came autumn
the season of change and new beginnings
to them it would be a time of much more
because they were each other's new dawning.
