The sharing of
an experience
between
two people
seems so irrational
One would imagine
that having
sharing something with someone it would
create a bond
between the
two
who have
shared the experience
but absurdly it
doesn't. Sometimes
it
forces a
separation, a distance.
How many people
have we
loved
or kissed
or conversed with
only to forget
or pass
on
our way
without even exchanging
Names. Is this
what it
is
all about?
