PY:Parallel Lines

Dedicated to Sri.Happy Birthday! :)

The lush green path abruptly forked in two
My heart turned cold with dread
For I knew deep down
That I was headed one way and you another

Parting of the ways they say
But how do you bid adieu to a part of your life?
Wisdom has no measure of punctuality
Yet its epiphanies are worth waiting for

Years from then I've realized
Our paths were parallel and will always be
From time to time, I stop and wave at you from the distance
And you smile at me just the same

Nothing's changed, nothing ever will
For we're bound not by circumstances
Nor by a transient materialistic whim
Not even by blood

'Tis our souls that are intertwined
And bonds of the soul can never be severed
