Same


It's so relieving to know that you are not alone.
To receive the words "Same. Very same."

A lingering little feeling in your spirit, mind, or chest
is lingering somewhere too in another human's nest.

A quirky little habit
or a big and crooked grin
exists in other places
is shared by the soul of a friend.

We live and look for hope,
acceptance, love, and fun
There is such a warm and cozy feeling when you're welcomed to the tribe
When you find another being
whom you see yourself inside.

    What a lovely explanation for a very simple but very universal feeling.
