We Both Know

We both knew
What we wanted
And we both knew
The Birth and death cycle
The search
The waiting
The longing

And

Then

We both knew

Who we are

The names

Were engraved

On our hearts

Distance meant nothing

As our hearts

Knew

How to beat

Together

We both knew

The magic spell

It worked only 

When we were together 

The awesome world

We shared 

The unending stories

Of enchanting topics

We both knew

How to ride that bird

On the wings of imagination 

It flew us to far away destinations 

I saw those worlds becoming alive 

In you

And you saw them 

In me

We both knew

It was no less than heaven 

We both felt the joy

The sense of union 

When our Minds held each other

And recited the Love mantra

Your words

Were not just words 

I saw their beautiful faces 

Their tangible meanings

They always were there

To open the doors

To those unseen worlds 

So we both can further explore 

We both knew

It was meant to be

But we both know

We have missed the train

That has on our name

That last train has already gone

Only We both know

What it means

Birth and death cycle

Will continue 

Me and You

Will meet 

Again
