Parallel Lives

We were walking parallel lives

but from two different parts of the globe in time

each traveling round on roads unknown

to learn about life outside of our home

while others around us stayed in their comfort zone

we destined out to unafraid and alone

We were walking parallel lives

each within the same lifetime

yet with all of the places that we trekked

we still somehow never met

we were both being shaped and prepared

for one another and the love we’d share

like a harvest there would come a time

when the fruit would finally appear on the vine

We were walking parallel lives

until suddenly our worlds collide

some might describe it as a cute first meet

while others say it was simply meant to be

you reached out your hand and I reached out mine

two parallel lines became one life

with all the years I waited for you

in a moment a thousand prayers came true.
