similarities,differences

A boy, restless, boyish, eager to move on

A girl, quiet, reflective, in an unbending linger

In moments, in pieces of time, in rooms with white colored walls

In brownish coffee shops, in their alternate worlds

She spoke of her brushes, her trysts with nature

And her constant dismay with people

He spoke in pictures, picturesque places

He spoke in patterns, steps, sequences

He wrote them down in passion, called them his art

She spoke of science, he never cared less

He spoke of a game, her eyes wandered for a window

As they moved away, they learned, they sought the same from life

They sought  dreams, creation, change

They sought new

They were no special,

Just two of those friendly young people,

You meet on the sidewalk

Ignore, maybe stare awhile, forget

A carpet of night and day, gently fell down

As they weaved it with their dreams, poles apart

They loved it, more than anything else, in a selfish guarded way
