World Apart

I had thought that for once, I had found a good start,
With you, I had dealt my cards,
Yes, I had never thought,
That we would be a world apart.

No, the idea never crossed,
I never thought you’d depart,
Because of me, you were an integral part,
But now, we are a world apart.

Did you know how much life you infused?
Into such a shaken soul, so confused?
Did you know the confidence you gave?
But now, we are a world apart.

I thought we belonged in the same paradise,
I never thought I would lie,
So badly, I thought we were the same entity,
But now, we are a world apart.

Oh, there was supposed to be,
No secrets between us, but it was me,
Who had kept a few, and turned you down,
And now, we are a world apart.

Oh, I thought life was a gift, and that this was such a fine experience,
I thought that you were such a good friend!
You meant so much, I cannot say,
And now, we are a world apart.

You were so endearing, I cannot express,
So wonderful, oh yes!
You stood so high, I can only remember,
Because we are a world apart.

We found no separation, before,
Even if we were oceans apart, we were close,
It didn’t divide, the mountains and seas,
But I guess, we are now a world apart.

We are in the same earth, sharing the same place,
We are in the same heaven and hell,
We see the same sun, and the very same stars,
But we are still, a world apart....
