We Started Out as Far Away Ones

We started out as far away ones
Chasing after setting suns
Just like any other nonchalant passerbys
Never knowing that we're gonna be by each other's side

Days and months passed while  in TAD
Be it at Loyang or ALH we just dont see
But one fine day I recieved a Twitter direct message
And unspokenly realized that we're both of pretty damaged

Amplified turmoils of the heart were seen
And for everyday we started scrolling at our screen
Daily nothings became each other's somethings
Over two long years without even trying

For 2 muted years we just kept texting
While occasional silences became internally defeaning
Still no physical interaction besides virtual communication
Besides that day when i held the A380 MEC door for you without any hesitation

Then one night came when the current was too strong
We missed each other but saying it would sound too wrong
It was during your night shift while i finished attending a wedding
But like lightning we just needed some immediate grounding

Then somehow at two in the morning
We found ourselves sitting on that bench talking abt our daily nothings
T'was too soon that you had to leave at two forty-five
But during departure it was that one hug that helped us survive

We started out as far away ones
Now looking forward to complete more runs
Travelling, bagpacking, trekking and climbing
Hearing your heart beating while watching and feeling the warm sun rising
