I am a straight line
Ever going, always the same
Never stopping, never changing
Always having one purpose

I am a curved line
Never stopping, yet ever changing
Always having its ups and downs
Always an unpredictable journey

We are parallel lines
Always together
Yet never to touch
A pointless, lonely journey

We are perpendicular lines
To go on forever is our duty
Only to meet once in our whole existence

Life is a mixture of lines
Straight and curved
Parallel and perpendicular
All lines but of different definition
