Just a Heart Beat Apart

Forlorn and abandoned,
Yet together eternally,
United in the soul,
Two little sisters,
Sharing warm smiles,
Sorrows and memories,
And innocent promises,
In life’s unwinding roads.
But they were parted,
To two different families,
Two different worlds,
Taught to chase new dreams,
And inspired to blossom,
Their paths never crossed.
But in their hearts,
They knew,
That hope always smiles,
And no distance is too far,
And they will always be, 
Just a heartbeat apart.
