Hyphen

Lost individuals

long to live accompanied.

Loneliness gets lame,

and pairs tend to form.

Like two middle-aged people

soon to be lovers.

Linked together,

they are now one.

Getting to know each other

like a child and the alphabet.

Finding each other,

their missing element.

Refused to be separated by space,

they combine themselves.

Their lives, their feelings, their thoughts,

together as one.
