I believe in Destiny

Oh, i believe in Destiny,
i believe in fate,
and if something is destined to happen -
then it is fated that it should happen...

For i met a very close friend once -
that i had very much wanted to see:
i was leaving the highlands...
and she was just walking up the hill!
and we came together from opposite directions,
living some 500 miles apart,
though on this same peninsula:
i stayed in the southernmost tip -
while she hies from the northernmost state...
and on Camerons we had met!

Then there was another beloved guy
I'd wanted to meet - after quite many years
we'd lived apart: he was "on one side of the mountain,
and i was on the other side of the hill"...
and to think we had both taken a holiday
each with each's family
and we had met on neutral ground:
at two eateries, side by side!
I had the urge to go out to add to the order -
he had just stepped out to leave, walking to his car...

Thus, i feel, if i wish really, really hard -
and prayed very, very hard, too,
and at times even shed a tear or two:
God would hear my heartache...
and grant me that one fervent wish -
to see a long lost friend - just once...
or to see a most beloved face,
long kept in the distant memories...
to see those that i've loved - just once -
be it just for a few seconds - once...?

For i believe in Destiny...
And i believe beautiful dreams do come true...
