For we both got off together,
and briefly touched our hands.
Our eyes shared an honesty,
as deep as the desert sands.

Then, you were lost in the crowd,
and I never saw you again.
Taking that route to work every day,
wishing to see you more back then.

But my wish was never granted,
our eyes never met anymore.
But I longed to see you once again,
as our lives moved on to more.

With my life now on the wane,
I often remember that refrain,
we felt when our eyes met,
on that distant temporal plane.

Now, I wonder if it ever happened,
our eyes won't ever meet once more.
Why you've suffered so much longing,
waiting for me on some distant shore.
