generations apart...

there were two different people
separated by time
related they were
yet comprehend they did not

one would say I love you
yet the other does not feel the vibe
since it seems that the two
just don’t see eye to eye

but when we come take a look
from outside we can see
that the two might not be speaking
such similar words
yet shouts produced,
are of the same line
even though the gap in between makes it feel so unalike

mommy can’t you see me
yes, child...let me show you
making each other feel
that the other is not walking on the same grounds

perhaps the two might as well
take a step back, to observe
that if each could come forward and fill in the gap

perhaps one would see
that what the other is saying
is not trying to pull...
...one’s leg back.

[to my dear little sister, who I hope understands, that blood is so much thicker than what one feels is love...]
