Worlds Apart

We're worlds apart
You and I
Different and unknown
and I ask why

Why do we hide
from where we are?
So close together
but yet so far

The nearby reaches
of my human grasp
does not understand
your presence or you past

But I do learn
and day by day
and little by little
I learn The Way

We're still worlds apart
You and I
Sharing understanding together
and I know why
