together alone

Little worlds

Parallel lives

Lane beside lane

Overlapping

Diverging

Our own little boxes

Our own small goals

Our own dreams

Hopeful and shattered

Our own journey

Ever impeded

Impacted

by the circumstance

of the presence of others

close

far

intimate

unknown

from whom we receive

and

to whom we give

who we gain

and who we lose

bound

unbound

spending ourselves

striving for

nothing

something

to begin and end our day in our box

together alone

till we are gone
