While waiting for the train, I saw them kissing.
They were young and knew nothing of the art form.
Their train came and left. Of course, they missed it.
They remained there frozen across the platform.

It was probably his first time. He seemed diffident.
She kissed with confidence, but rather, mindlessly.
I started wondering how we kissed differently.
You kissed with faithfulness and I, with honesty.

I got in the train-car and continued watching them.
I thought about us and it made me shudder.
Like them, we never thought about how fortunate
We were to be together, until we lost each other.

Excellent....I never ever thought of it this way. Good insight, and some quality writing to go with it.
