Human Relations

Divergent we creatures
Individual lives we define
Each new definition
A distance created
You're different from me
In another specific way

Lucky for us
There's a space in between
Where we're always the same
No matter how
The hobby dice were cast

It's a softer city
Where we can't help but roam
A meadowy town
With some swamps and loam

For it's feelings we feel
A language all share
From hurt to rage
Fear to loathing
Pain, even happiness

Yet translate we must
To meet in this land
Street signs painted long ago
To childhood remand

When lamplit corner our meeting
Tearful we'll be
But our sobs won't be sad
As we finally see
