"Lucky"

I realize now how lucky I am...
to have shared this time with you...
you showed me requited love
something I've never felt before
a first in my life

just when I thought i might have
seen,
done,
and felt everything...
original experience is rare in this world
and is what I seek most in life
that's how I know how lucky I am
to be with you.

I know our lives have different paths
that our destinies won't let us be together
but if our paths were to cross once more
I dream of that day
I could hold you again.

but if that day never comes
i can still think of you and smile
knowing that you're fufilling your dreams
not wasting a minute of precious time
and doing what's best for yourself.

all I ask is that you not forget me
and no matter what silly adventure I may be on
remember that I'll be sitting on that train
thinking of you...
no matter what separates us...
ocean, forest, or mountain range,
you're never far from my heart.
