Many different much the same

Many different much the same
Painting by Leonid Afremov

Places, many places, many different.

Many different places, many different faces.

Different streets, different buildings.

Different colors, different words.

~

So different. So not the same.

Yet so different and yet so much the same.

~

The same life, the same sky.

The same breath. The same heart beat beating in our chests.

The same questions, the same eyes looking up at the sky.

What is? What for? Why for? Why is? We all wonder, we all question.

~

So different yet so the same.

How we all are so perfectly different.

How we all are so beautifully the same.
