We are different but we are also the same.


A little bit of —

no thoughts are the same,
no feelings are the same

but there is understanding,
an immeasurable connection,
though far from perfect, that exists,
and it creates a bridge between us
where we can walk together

for the paths we tread on
are of our own choices,
the struggles we face
will never be the same
and so are our ways to cope up

voices we may have
to speak of right and wrong
about these matters
but what right do we have
to claim that one's decision
is right or wrong?

we all go through hell,
I like to believe we all do
but it does not equate
to us finding the exit
all at the same time

for no thoughts are the same,
no feelings are the same

and so the bridge may crumble
in every step that we take
but the connection we have
can save us from drowning
hence, even if we cannot be
the same in our hearts
and in our minds,
never is there a distance
that cannot be filled
with this bond

the distance between us
— akin to the voids
inside our hearts
but all that we are now
I hope will fill
these hollowed parts

for no thoughts are the same,
no feelings are the same
