Another soul drifting
The animals’ hearts beating
They stretch out their waves
But never collide
I listen to them cry
I wonder where you’ll wander...
Our worlds will sunder
I’ll go my own way
You will forget me
We’ll flicker and fade
(In the brevity of this illumination
I have witnessed, under the starlight
That we are parts of a whole
We are not alone
Will I remain a part of this entity
Living, breathing, pulsing, existing?
Could I even break away
If I wanted to...?)
Where are you moving?
I wonder where you’ll wander
Is this empathy?
A genuine concern?
Do I really care
If they live or burn?
Sonder
Shadows of lives
I will erase your story, I will create my own
Sonder
All the lies I invent for your lives I will erase your stories
I will assume them all
