Never Really Know

You never know who's up ahead.
Who's waiting in the wings.
Who's brief hello and simple smile,
Changes everything.
You never know who lies and waits
Beyond the distant bend.
First a stranger, than an acquiantance,
Then a lifelong friend.
You never know as the seconds pass
What fate has up its sleeve.
But there's comfort in the comfort
That we're where we're supposed to be.
You never know until that moment,
And thats so apropos.
That at any moment your life can change,
And you never really know.
