Boys and Girls

And other separations

Boys, girls
Friends, acquaintances
Co-workers, enemies
The space between people

Past, present
And future relationships
Are separated only
By time

Right or left
Top or bottom
Are separated only
By perspective

Happy or sad
Victim or perpetrator
Are only separated
By mirrors

Good or bad
Righteous or wrong
Are only separated
By adjectives

Us and them
Them and us
Are only separated
By ‘and’

Replacing ‘and’
With ‘also’
Brings together that
Which is ‘all’

Separations divide
Combinations unite
Words divide
Feelings merge

When words fracture
Love heals
When love heals
We are all one
