I sit around them, but I don't feel like sharing or talking. I have been here for years, but why don't I recognize them? Who are you, and why am I not with you? We have been together, but still, you are just a known stranger. I know your name, your age, your home, but I don't know who you are. Why aren't we friends then? Why can't I share, talk with you? Why is this so awkward? Do I really know you, or are you just a known stranger?

Known Strangers
I sit around them, but I don't feel like sharing or talking. I have been here for years, but why don't I recognize them? Who are you, and why am I not with you? We have been together, but still, you are just a known stranger. I know your name, your age, your home, but I don't know who you are. Why aren't we friends then? Why can't I share, talk with you? Why is this so awkward? Do I really know you, or are you just a known stranger?
