Dedications

Strangers

Dedicated to the person I no longer know,

we never got the chance
to know each other
or did we?

we don't even know
each other's names
or do we?

we didn't cross paths
sad but it's true
or have we?

the or messes one up
first or, I think we know
but we pretend we don't
for we're scared
to know more
because sometimes
knowing more, hurts us more

second or, maybe we forgot
maybe not for we pretend again
we pretend not to know for we think
it'll make us forget but instead it lingers
and marks as if we don't wish to forget

last or, maybe our paths crossedand we just avoid to think and reminiscefor all it brought was pain, so we pretendwe pretend we're strangers when in fact we aren't

Strangers. Pretending. Us.
I should stop, we are strangers.
I no longer know you.
