Sonder.
Taking your first breath after the realisation that billions of people have life full of complexities as your own
Filled with dreams, hopes, family, friends, hobbies, quirks
All you experience is in another
Billions of gateways to other lives others couldn't comprehend
Which you'll only appear once in, the background character to someone elses story
Nothing more than what the red light reflects on in a street in the dark
The birds you see once fly by and never again
The star you focus on that one time in your life, never to be seen again
This is sonder.
