Within the Space of Sharing

The distance that separates us
Is not measured in miles,
But in our ability to share
What is on our minds
And in our hearts.
Bridging that gap
May be the final frontier.
The ability to say
What is there for us,
To be fully present
To ourselves and each other
May be our biggest hurdle.
Our perception of the world
Is colored by
The quality of our communications.
Within the space of sharing
Lies to key to our humanity,
And our affinity for each other.
We have so much in common
If we can only learn to express it.
