family??

by Stuart Shilton


We don’t relate, we’re related but
Not in MIND
We live in the same house
But exist in separate universes
I am so much like you.

I see and understand only
To reject your reality
For an existence of my own
I’m sorry that
I am not as you are

Rings true for many of us. The second half is a well thought out way of saying something I've told myself many times.
