Two souls wandering about aimlessly.
Don’t know where they are going
Don’t remember where they came from
Passing each day and night and losing their light
Both have loved and lost, what was important to them
Their hope and dreams of finding love again dwindle
As time passes this man, this woman meets in a coffee shop
The table that she is sitting at has the last chair available.
He asks if she would mind him sharing the table
She looks at him, smiling and says, “please sit.”
One cup of coffee turns into two, and then into three.
Time has slipped away. Now both are late for work and must leave.
He tells her he would like to see her again, holding his breath until he hears her reply. “I would like that.”
They smile and shake hands goodbye, exchanging phone numbers
As they walk away, both of them are thinking, what if this is my chance
To become whole again.
