No complaints. No demands.

And still they held hands,
just for a while long.
Universe that day knew,
how strong is their bond. 

They knew at the end of the road, 
they will choose different lane.
At the end of this day, 
they will not meet again.

He was so wrong for her
and she was not right either. 
Even on their favourite song,
they never danced together. 

But still they held hands,
just for a while long.
They were always friends.
Nothing more, nothing less.
They will always be.
No complaints. No demands.
Just one promise,
‘I will be there for you’.

And when they held hands,
it felt like being at home.
Strong coffee after rough day,
delightful company of known.
A well deserved vacation,
felt like peace in every way. 

Alas, they parted ways,
never to speak of it again.
But in defining life moments, 
silently spoke of other's name.

At the end of it all,
they will meet at the sea.
A ship from the fantasy, 
ready for a journey so long.
Footsteps on the sand,
disappearing in the time.
On the deck they will sit,
With whisky and their song. 
They will talk about the journey.
About life and life partners.
There is that only moment,
there is no time after. 

And then they will hold hands,
just for a while long.
Universe will be reminded,
how strong was their bond.

They were always friends,
nothing more, nothing less.
No complaints. No demands. 
Just a promise that was kept.
“I am here for you.”
