Stranger

Today I saw you walking

down the hall

And I remembered

how we used to be.

I looked at you for

Acknowledgement,

Maybe a little smile,

or a wave, just to know

That you knew

that I was there.

But you kept your head down,

and kept walking,

Making us look like

The complete strangers I guess

We have become.

Author's Note

We used to be so close, what happened?

If he's. Being a jerk he doesn't deserve you . Nice short love . Very talented :)

This is so beautiful, it really spoke to me.

[Gigglez]

While it is sad when that happens, sometimes...it is for the better of both.
But that is just my opinion.
It (the poem) is beautiful, regardless.

this is a good poem based on the norm of growing asunder , keep writing

[Michael Kevin Spencer]

I so know this feeling! You have captured it well, it's not that they weren't thinking the exact same thing right? But people lack courage, for fear of non-acceptance or for lack of social skills maybe...
