The Red String of Fate

The idea of destiny and fate
As astounding as it sounds,
Something they’ve only heard of,
Something that makes them feel spellbound.

Two strangers living their own lives,
Unaware of another’s existence,
Simply sticking to their persistence,
Just working their nine to five.

One fine day,
It seems fate found a way,
To bring them together,
Named it a coincidence and blamed the weather.

With their endless meetings and countless talks,
Their love started to bloom,
Along with their evening walks,
And even their presence in the room.

Even though their love was deep with devotion,
It seems time had other plans.
They had to let go of their emotions,
Not only that but also their hands.

The red string that binds them,
They’ve yet to know about,
They might be separated now,
But destiny will find a way out.
