Old Friend

 

Which of us would know

If the stars traded places?

Old friend, I strive to arrive

At a place where your

Light and mine

Are indistinguishable

At least to me

Because that’s all

I know of empathy,

That and

That I’ll never reach peace

If I’m racing you there.

An awesome idea and title.
The arabs were right when they said "little is sweet". its a short poem but beautiful.

how wonderfully romantic!

Because that’s all
I know of empathy

it seems you understand well the nature of things. :)

I like this. I says to me that it's better to aim for the goal of synthesis rather than the friction of the race itself. Nice!
