Strangers turned into friends;
Friends turned to lovers.
Distance was a factor,
Yet never was a problem .
‘Twas a relationship like the distant stars:
Never together, always apart.
Connected by the strength of light,
Communicated every hour.

Soon it came to an end.
Light could not keep the bond:
The bond of happiness, the bond of joy, the bond of love.
Distance was a factor,
And lovers turned into strangers .
