How many degrees separate us
On this axis of life?
Where are you
That we remain strangers?
Have our paths crossed
As we invisibly amble?
Do you breathe unawareness
Malnourished also
By overpopulation?
Seek refuge in your heart
Destiny calls us
Unique to our quest
Waiting in the wings
For our paths to cross
Two things came to my mind: the lyrics of the song Soulmate by Natasha Bedingfield, and the movie Serendipity.
I loved how your language was just right between contemporary/pop-familiar, and lyrically edgy. THIS is a poem. Thanks for the lovely ride.
Thank you for the lovely comment. x
