There they sit. So close together yet their minds live so far apart. Only a closed door sits between them, begging to be opened. He cries silently to himself hoping one day the torment will stop. He knows too much about the possibilities, the consequences. Living in fear of never getting to overcome this eternal punishment. The other existing oblivious to what could be. For there is nothing to this door. Yet everyday he feels an urge to look inside, but everyday there is nothing. The first screams in agony, pleading for a chance to escape or be heard. The second only able to wonder about the things that could exist. This is the life lived by lovers and strangers. It is nearly impossible to be both. One day the decision must be made to lock this door, and find a new one.
