In different dimensions we exist
Side by side
Threads of fate tangling and interweaving
We walk,
Side by side
Our footsteps follow each other
But we could not be farther apart
I am you, if only you
Slept in five minutes
Listened to a different song on the subway
Missed that left turn
The rules are different for each of us
But each small difference gives us a chance
To make things right
In our own way
Butterfly wingbeats become typhoons
