My friend the stranger

by unearthly child   Apr 21, 2015


I long for you, subtle stranger
familiar stranger
faraway stranger
i long to wave to you
to hold your hand
to say hello to you
to say goodbye to you
the silence, the nothingness
between us hurts me until
the air i breathe in stings
i long for you in waves
just to be your friend
your conscience
your constant reminder
that you are not alone here
in this place
i want you to live forever so i
never have to hear of your death
from some other person's lips
i wish for you to be happy
in every great moment you are just you
subtle stranger, familiar stranger, faraway stranger
