Dear Love

by Will Read - Gemini

Dear Love.

Kind regards to you, for I was not here when you came to call.
Could it be that destiny decrees that we should never meet?
Parallel lives that walk the same corridors and staircases – Yet on different streets.
Tantalisingly - Out of reach.

Separated by a shallow breath of acid fate.
Same days – Different dates.
Unavailed to either love or hate.

A simple case of right not left.
That renders both of us bereft.

Maybe I will always be, the ghost that drifts between your line – And you the silent spectre tracing mine.
