Silent Flame

I was just
Looking for
A space to hide
The day we met

I think
that’s what she was doing
As well

Searching
Hiding
Trying to be
Alone

We just wanted
A place to
Get away
From life

Just
For a while

Just long enough
To ground ourselves
Again

But fate
Is cunning in that way

It takes two
Lonely
Outsiders

It takes them
And makes them
Find each other

It makes them
Subconsciously
Seek each other

There are no coincidences
No chance meetings

Everything
Is controlled by
Fate

It makes you find each other
When you’re just seeking solace
