Fate
As he walked along the path
he looked at the world around him.
He felt as if his life was drowning
and had forgotten how to swim.
The only thing he still possessed
Was the letter that he wrote.
Her love was at the bottom of the sea
But all he could do was float.
Across the bay was the girl
Walking on another trail.
She wanted to escape this deep dark place
And get on a boat and sail.
But those two roads never crossed;
Their destined meeting did not occur.
All that she needed was him and
all he needed was her.
Life is long and the world’s too big
to get caught up on just one affair.
I believe there’s a light at the end of it all;
And we should be willing to get there.
