You don’t know me
And you do not know my thoughts
I do not know you
Not your name, nor your person
So I don’t know whether or not
I’d want to be near you or leave you to rot
If I looked at you would you rock my world?
Hardly, your appearance is the only thing I would observe
And then we would never again cross paths on this earth
I love cats yet you might prefer dogs
I live where it’s sunny yet you may hail near the fog
I travel by car a short way, though I’d gladly board a plane
To travel a great distance, But maybe you’d board a bus in an instance.
Are you one to flinch when someone raises their hand?
Do you have anyone? A friend? Anybody with whom you have made plans?
Are you tired of this world? Or are you learning to join the dance?
I could believe anything about you because I will never meet you
You are a stranger, not unlike a ghost
And yet today, you are in my thoughts the most
