It’s such a strange feeling
having a chance encounter send you reeling.
Especially when you’re knowing
you’ve both got someone waiting.

Your skin’s touch pierces me like cold ice,
getting lost in those starry hazel eyes.
I cannot help but continue to fall
even as guilt pushes against my stomach wall.

The words you say set my heart ablaze
like we’ve known each other forever.
With every passing glance and touch of hands,
this feeling’s getting oh so stronger.

But we know we’ve both got to go.
No, I’ll never be yours
and you’ll never be mine.
Perhaps another Place.
Perhaps another Time.
