Strangers once more,  
With hearts untethered, we part ways.  
No more laughter echoes between us,  
There’s only silence where words used to dance.  
We were everything to each other,  
Now we are nothing.

What we loved, what we shared,  
Seems distant, like a forgotten dream.  
I don’t miss the way your smile felt like home,  
I don’t feel the absence of your touch.

I refuse to remember,  
How you knew me,  
How you understood my fears and secrets.

It's a blessing we’re strangers now.  
I won’t pretend  
It was worth knowing you,  
It’s clear now,  
We were always meant to be strangers.

Now read from bottom to top.
