Distant

It was an instant attraction but 
somewhere it split , a cosmic 
reaction but somehow it fizzled.
We came together so fast, we lost 
sight of the past. 
Same mistakes things undone, we 
walked when maybe we should have 
run.
I was mad I was sad, took my pace 
said we needed space.
You were gone, I knew I was wrong.
I knew in an instant, we became 
distant.
