Simple Truth

Folks always say: 
"thousand people, thousand wonders". 
Confusing, simple truth is repeated, 
so why through thousand little pathways 
identical color runs, 
soul of the mankind, 
with the same umbilical connected 
to the Earth on which color screams? 

I might be a lonely star, 
my twinkling is not even seen, not desired, 
just wandering through backyards of life. 
Yet, my dreams are not only mine, 
for you and I extended our hands 
to shovel through mud of insights, 
to reach each other in ethereal distances, 
precariously, with no names, 
always striving for myths.

Karen, Thank you so much!!!! Couple last months, I have ‘writer’s block’… probably depressive affairs in this world. I can give a try, I guess. God Bless, Vesna
