Thousand Miles Away

THOUSAND MILES AWAY

I was scared to travel the world of love,

To explore the complicated world of dating;

It scared the hell out of me, oh my God!

Just by thinking that someone might not take

me seriously!

 

But it was then that I realized

That I should not be afraid to try,

To wander around and meet a lot of guys

To get out of my comfort zone and spread

my wings to fly.

 

I’ve met a few but none of them is you

Like the one I’ve been dreaming about;

Tall, well-built, and eyes are blue,

Can I even meet you? I’m all in doubt.

 

I was in pain, my hearts in vain,

Not sure if love will come, I’m so hopeless;

In my own negative thoughts I’ve been drowning

Should I stop looking, in my own world should

I be hiding?

 

I was ready to give up when love tap me on my back

And told me, “Hey, your time has come!”

I was confused, I should’ve stepped back

But my feet stridden one step closer.

 

I met him in the most unexpected place,

In the most unexpected time of the day.

It was almost midnight; the moon was shining brightly,

While the sun was up shining to where he was.

 

God must have put a joke on us,

Keeping us apart; thousand miles away from each other.

But love knows no distance

For two worlds apart have fin’lly met with one

another.
