Worlds Apart

living in separate universes
boundaries spin a blur
lives never meant to intertwine
yet somehow worlds collide
when heart’s echoes resonate
soulmates from different times
across the ages love to meet
in random lost pages of poetry

Such beautiful sentiments dear Line and so very true. In the last few months so many friends on PS have kept me going with their words of great comfort, and even though I have never met them they have been so supportive, truly the kindest souls. With kindest thoughts Ann xx

It is interesting to me that some of my best friends who know me better than others I will probably never meet in person and I am fine with it.

I agree. Sometimes knowing they are happy and well is plenty. I have reached out to people from my distant past and was thrilled to know they were fine. Sometimes that's enough.
