And the world came crashing

When the world came crashing
We were hurrying to the goal post,
When I met you, I was brisk and you were slow,
Nothing in between that I would know,
Challenged this bond that we thought to grow,
Hiccups aplenty and common grouse,
Shaken by the thunder that came unannounced,
The world came crashing and we were unaware,
Now, when I look back, I do nothing, just stare
