Familiar Strangers

LoveRemembered

One day in the future when we pass by in the street
I in my ragged and dirty clothes
You in your fine dress and hair in bows
Will you remember me when we meet?
Or will you look and turn your head swiftly
Step faster to the hum of the day
And from me walk away?
Don't you remember me from years ago?
How we laughed and talked all day long?
No worries in life, together nothing could be wrong
Our future to be apart, you didn't know
But I knew, so I held on tightly
Until that day forever burned in memory
Like a ship set for sail, you left me
Now the years have passed and here we are
Two familiar strangers by chance collide
And once again walk side by side
I feel as if freed from prison bars
But will you remember me?
Or will you pass on by
Ignoring a memory and perpetuating a lie?

| Something most of us experience at one time or another, and it's never something we wish for. You wrote it beautifully. |
