I opened my eyes and saw someone looking back at me
Made me avert my glance because I did not recognize this stranger staring at me
Staring at me with squinted eyes and an awkward gaze
So I walked away
But when I turned to the side
I thought I saw you again
So I looked, but it was only this same stranger, looking back at me
with no words to say
Sadness overshadowed me and taunted me with imaginary replicas of you that followed me
Replaying in my mind over and over, that stranger watching me
But he looked so much like you
Whomever he was, he wasn't you
Because you would never let me walk away from you
Or from us.
I don't like strangers.
The audacity of this man to wear your face and flaunt your cologne
Only to see the look upon my face
And to watch me walk away
I missed you today.
I opened my eyes and saw someone looking back at me
Made me avert my glance because I did not recognize this stranger staring at me
But he looked so much like you
Whomever he was, he wasn't you
Because you would never let me walk away from you
Or from us.
I don't like strangers.
