The Paths We Tread Poem by Noah Body

We were separate and alone
Drifting, lost, windblown

Fading stars in the dawn
Magnetically together drawn

Circling round, drawing nearer
Hope rises and it grows clearer

Someone to share, to connect
United our lives can resurrect

Hearts pounding, we anticipate
Crushing loneliness will abate

Twisting fate throws us a curve
As between us both we observe

The paths we tread simply touch
Passing by while we may brush

But never do they intersect
Never will we ever connect
