A passer-by is what I see. A passer-by you are to me. It's not that you a stranger, you from my past. Past experiences unpleasant, so we didn't last. Last thing I remember, a thousand words in your stare. Long lasting moments, as if they were never there. A thousand words to say but neither of us try. Instead egos are built up and we continue to lie. The lies that were told and the reactions I gave. Then I lie to myself thinking you I forgave. Saying I needed closure, but I wanted the last word. Playing an imaginary scene in my head that's never seen or heard. I plan to approach you with everything I need to say. Structured scenes in my mind excite me for the next day. Approaching this head on , no more living a lie. Then I find out you pass away and never pass me buy.
