Converging Roads
Two friends converge along life's stormy road
as destiny is whispering in their ears,
"Don't wander past this gift I have bestowed,
the love that you've been seeking all these years."
They halt within their tracks and contemplate
upon the voice and what they hear it say.
It softly tells them of that one soul mate
who'll brighten up their life with each new day.
They deeply look into each other's eyes
and wonder if the words they hear ring true.
This revelation takes them by surprise
yet in their spirit shines a light brand new.
Though joined upon this path their lives are split
so destiny’s plans could be in vain.
Yet burning strong within is the fire they've lit
in hope that fate's decision will remain.
Upon this road they'll travel apart
until the time they're free to choose once more.
They'll keep this treasured gift within their heart
and wait the day true love they can explore.
