I thought I read u, and saw right thru u.
In fact, it was u see thru me.
We look at each other n wonder,
Is it us or are we looking at mirror?
Wordless, I could feel your grief.
In silence, you could hear my pain.
We shared a short chapter in this life,
We continue to write.
Yet it feels like
I’ve known u for lifetimes.
No single word to explain,
How in the world we never met?
Was it too late or was it perfect?
That the timing couldn’t have waited.
Is it too late or is it perfect?
That now we have chosen paths.
There could probably be no way back.
In silence I heard your scream.
In darkness I saw your wounds.
Never thought they were mine too.
In crowd I heard your voice.
In loneliness I felt your presence.
Never thought you’d be there.
In despair, I don’t dare to hope.
Would I let what could be my other-half,
Slowly slipping away?
In vain, I grief silently without tears.
Would I be mourning for one more time?
We are perhaps two of a kind.
What’s left of a vanishing tribe.
We speak of a language, we share same minds.
It feels like I’ve known you forever in my life.
I had, perhaps, loved you in another lifetime.
