First and last

I see you, and I describe you in a certain way.

I use my words and a mental framework that I developed throughout my lifetime.

The experiences I lived through shaped my mind.

You might not like the way I describe what I see, but it’s nothing personal.

You don’t have to accept any of my definitions, define me as a person with limited vision, and all is solved.

But if you want me to see you in a different way,

without conversation,

nothing will change

We will have to talk,
explore each others’ worlds,
and lives we consider past

We’ll have to exchange the lessons we learnt,
and make sure

that our first misunderstanding
also remains our last
