Lonely souls

So close
so far away
to each other.
So close
in the same place
so far away
separated by a wall.
Cannot see
each other.
Cannot smile
to each other.
Cannot speak
to each other.
So close
but thick bricks
between them.
So far away
but connected
in their minds.
Two
lonely
souls

The end

Sitting, I wait for
the dawn
when the sun rises
I forget, though
never again
I will survive till
the morning
I won’t see the rays of
the sun
breaking the horizon
