Walking along a nearly empty road
I glimpse another, on the opposite side
Now, I know not how this does bode,
As I attempt to match them stride for stride
Wondering what could be happening in their mind
“Tell me, please.”
I would say in an attempt to find
Who this stranger truly is, put me at ease
And not merely familiarize myself with their exterior
But their whole person.
