We walk on different roads,
and rush back to different homes,
The stars you see are not the same
as the ones that I count.
You greet faces I have never seen
and I repeat names you've never heard.

But the same sun and moon shine over us,
the same songs give us the best hugs,
Every word we say is a memory we'd stitched,
every joke we tell others is our shared secret,
a reminder of the theory of soulmates.

For love's in our shared accessories, and inside jokes,
love's when you sparkled glitter on my blues.
Love's when you had my favourite food over your darling delicacies,
Love's in the smiles you handed me,
Love's found in the silly tic-tac-toe games you lost for me.
Love's when you heard me cry again and again and again—
but never stopped my tears.

Love's when our different roads lead us to the same destination.
