separated by half of the planet
two friends talk to each other
a boy and a girl
a brother and a sister
the boy can see the stars
outside his window
and the girl can taste the dawn
outside hers
the boy doesn't have to worry about the future
because the girl is already into tomorrow
and she tells him that it's beautiful
and that everyone is still asleep
and she can hear the birds
and the boy smiles
halfway across the world
and he thinks that for a moment
he can hear the birds, too
