three parts

A distance of over 2000 miles

Hasn’t created a chasm

Our busy professional lives

Haven’t voided us out

It is almost as if

We have three parts to us

Career, home,

Us

We are different species of board room yogis

Straddling three different worlds

This is one time

you cannot say

I am the same person

You are and

You are not

Because I know I am not

It is a new me that

I keep waking up to

Every morning

Do you realize

Even people living under the same roof

Don’t give each other

As much time as we do

This is one time

You cannot say

I don’t carry anything from here

I hope you do

A new way of looking at things

At yourself

Which will stay with you

Even after I am long gone
